A dream realised for Dr Sanduk Ruit

Dr. Sanduk Ruit, renowned eye surgeon and visionary leader, has spent decades bringing sight-restoring care to those in need. Now, his dream of transforming eye care in Nepal’s Madhesh Province has become a reality – and it’s all thanks to your incredible support.

The Nijgadh Tilganga Community Eye Hospital is changing lives by bringing high-quality, sustainable eye care to one of Nepal’s most underserved regions.

What this hospital will achieve:

  • Deliver sight-restoring treatments to nearly 55,000 people annually, many accessing care for the first time.
  • Provide comprehensive eye care, from surgeries to pharmacy services, in a state-of-the-art four-story facility.
  • Operate sustainably with renewable energy powering its essential work.
  • Help reduce preventable vision loss in a region where over one million people live with vision impairment.


Watch the video below to see how your support has made this life-changing milestone possible.

"When I am operating, my soul, my heart, my brain, everything is in the eye. Because I don't think about anything else, just the eye."
