Restoring Sight, Transforming life
A not-for-profit initiative dedicated to eliminating avoidable blindness.

Why Our Work Matters
Vision is one of our most vital senses, yet millions live without it unnecessarily. Many people still don’t have access to quality eye care because of economic, geographic, or educational barriers. The impact of blindness disproportionately affects the most vulnerable populations, perpetuating cycles of poverty and inequality.
A Global Crisis
Over 1 billion people worldwide do not have access to the eye care they need.
Without change, this number will rise to 1.8 billion by 2050.
90% of vision loss occurs in low- and middle-income communities.
Economic Impact
Restoring sight changes lives and livelihoods.
Cataract surgery can raise household spending by 88% and lift 46% of families into a higher income bracket.
Clear vision is a pathway out of poverty.
Education & Children
Children with poor vision are up to 5 times less likely to attend school.
Providing glasses can cut the odds of a child failing a class by nearly half.
Better vision means better opportunities for the future.
Scope of Work
We offer a spectrum of services designed to prevent, treat, and educate communities, ensuring no one is left in the dark.
Be part of the Solution
We focus on early detection, complete treatment, and education — so patients don’t just get diagnosed, they get cured or managed for life.
Community Vision Leaders
Dr. Zamindar’s Eye Foundation has launched an awareness program by training Community Vision Leaders to spread knowledge about avoidable blindness.
These leaders are selected from neighborhoods with limited access to quality eye care and low awareness about eye health.
They are patients themselves, motivated to create awareness
and support people in their own communities. Because of this, they can build trust and connect effectively with those who may be hesitant to seek help.
The foundation will train them on avoidable
blindness and equip them with learning and awareness materials to share locally.
This initiative bridges the gap between communities and the treatment options available at Zamindar’s Eye Foundation. Together, we can work towards eliminating avoidable blindness.
Let us know if you would like to volunteer as a Community Vision Leader and spread awareness about avoidable blindness.

Our Journey of Impact
Tracing our milestones from a humble beginning to a large-scale movement against preventable blindness.
1996
Mobile Clinic Era Begins
Dr. Samina Zamindar started a mobile eye clinic on a scooter, bringing eye care directly to those who needed it most.
1997
First Permanent Clinic
The 1st clinic offering comprehensive eye care was started in Maruti Seva Nagar, marking our permanent presence.
2003
Surgery Center + Free Thursdays
We moved to Jai Bharat Nagar with an Operation Theatre and started offering concessional eye care services on Thursday mornings.
2011

Launched specialty eyecare facility at Prema Plaza offering Retina, Glaucoma, Cornea, and Oculoplasty services.
Our Initiatives
Targeted programs to address specific needs within our community and make a lasting impact.
Children’s Eye Care Initiative
Children see the world differently — and their eyes need care that
grows with them. Good vision is vital for learning, reading, sports, and
everyday activities. Detecting and treating problems early can make the difference
between a lifetime of clear sight and one of avoidable vision loss.
At our Children’s Eye Centre at HRBR Layout, we offer:
- Comprehensive eye exams for children from birth onwards.
- Early detection and treatment for conditions such as amblyopia
(lazy eye – weaker vision in one eye) and strabismus (crossed eyes
– eyes not aligned properly).
- Specialised clinics including a Myopia Clinic for short-sightedness
and Vision Therapy for depth perception, eye movement, or
focusing difficulties.
Our aim is simple — no child should struggle in school, on the
playground, or in life because of poor vision.
Senior Citizens Eye Care
Zamindar Microsurgical Eye Centre has partnered with Vayah Vikas to
make quality eye care more affordable for seniors.
Through this collaboration, all senior citizens receive concessional
rates across our services — from consultations and diagnostics to
surgeries. The aim is to reduce financial barriers so that older adults
can access timely treatment, preserve their independence, and enjoy a
better quality of life.
Our Road Safety Initiative
Clear vision is essential for safe driving. Poor eyesight can lead to
accidents that could have been prevented.
We provide:
- Free eye check-ups for all licensed drivers of autos, cabs, trucks,
and other public transport vehicles.
- On-the-spot glasses dispensing for drivers who need them at
affordable rates.
Why this matters:
- 60% of road accidents are linked to impaired vision.
- Unoperated cataract can increase accident risk by 2.5 times.
- 2 out of 3 people in India who need glasses either cannot afford
them or do not have access to care.
Our goal is simple — clear vision for drivers, safer roads for everyone.
