Over 2,000 Screenings, 600 Surgeries—All at No Cost

This year alone, Dr. Bonsaana’s team is screening more than 2,000 individuals and performing 600 free cataract surgeries. These procedures are not just medical interventions—they are life-changing moments for people who have lived in darkness, often for years.

“People still have misconceptions,” says Dr. Bonsaana. “So we are doing our part. But sometimes, priority is not placed on eye disease by the powers that be. We hope that with time, priorities will be placed on some of these things so that we will educate them more on eye conditions.”

Fighting Misconceptions, One Eye at a Time

Cataracts are the leading cause of blindness globally—but the condition is reversible with a simple surgical procedure. Unfortunately, misinformation and fear often prevent people from seeking help. Dr. Bonsaana and his team are working tirelessly to change that narrative, offering not just treatment, but education and hope.

Spread the Word: Eye Health Matters

Blindness isn’t always permanent. With early detection and timely treatment, many forms of vision loss can be prevented or reversed. That’s why Dr. Bonsaana is urging the public and policymakers alike to prioritize eye care.

• 1. Encourage your loved ones to get regular eye checkups.
  2. Share accurate information about eye diseases.
  3. Support initiatives that bring healthcare to underserved communities.

Together, we can help more people see a brighter future.
Let’s stand with Dr. Bonsaana and the Cure Blindness Project in their mission to bring light back into people’s lives—one restored vision at a time.
