Access to quality eye care should not depend on a person’s financial circumstances. Yet, many economically disadvantaged families delay eye examinations and treatment because they are concerned about medical expenses, transportation, surgery costs, or follow-up care. A charitable eye hospital in Delhi NCR, India can help address these challenges by bringing essential ophthalmic services within reach of underserved communities.

Lok Kalyan Samiti (LKS) has been working in healthcare and social welfare for decades, with its Eye Care Programme focused on making eye treatment accessible to people who need support. The organisation states that its eye-care programme began in 1975 and that free cataract surgery is its flagship programme.
