iCare for India

Medical Missions

For over two decades eye care professionals have been serving the rural populations of Southern India through medical missions by providing critical, life-altering vision care. We partner with industry leaders, equipment manufacturers, eyewear companies, pharmaceutical companies, and hosts of volunteers from India and North America to meet needs in effective and efficient ways. We are seeking to generate long-term impact through the raising up of local Indian men and women to provide care in a sustainable and dignified manner to their own people.


Functional vision is a privilege that most of us in developing nations take for granted. Decreased eye sight can affect one's ability to care for children, travel to work, and make a living. Poor vision leads to overall poorer health. It often only takes a little bit of vision care through medical missions to make a tremendous impact in someone’s life.

INDIA UPDATES

How can I GET INVOLVED WITH SOUTHERN INDIA?

Those seeking to help with our iCare for India project can do so in a few ways:

Join on a trip. We take a mix of medical and non-medical team members. We’ll train you to participate in meaningful ways. Contact us to learn more about our upcoming trips.

22,200 pairs of custom Rx'd glasses
5,900 cataract surgeries
39,000 eye-related evaluations
15,000 dental exams and treatments
31,000 pairs of reading glasses distributed

Team members cover all their own expenses, but while on the ground, we help with the costs of procedures locally in India. Your partnership can help make this possible for some of the most needy and vulnerable.
