An insight into DCI's Childhood Blindness Prevention Program (CBP).

Today the economic burden and loss in productivity due to blindness in Bangladesh amounts to nearly a billion dollars per year. The main cause of blindness in Bangladesh is cataracts. Even though cataracts can be easily cured by a simple operation, most of the Bangladeshi population has no access to cataract treatment services. With the aim of reaching out to those most vulnerable to blindness, children and infants, DCI has initiated a Childhood Blindness Prevention Program. Our main objective is to offer free diagnosis and treatment of eye diseases for poor children.
