Summary
Diabetic retinopathy is a condition of the eye, where the retina with blood vessels is affected due to diabetes. If not treated appropriately, will lead to decreased vision and blindness.Most diabetic population reside in remote areas. Ignorance, lean accessibility, poor socioeconomic background, makes specialised investigation and treatment non affordable. We use a combination of technology,medical expertise and methodology, to reach patients with subsidized and affordable cost. Important Notice about Projects in India: We expect that there will be significant delays in getting funds to this project due to new regulatory requirements that impact GlobalGiving's ability to disburse to Indian-banked organizations. GlobalGiving is working hard to address the issue, but there is a chance that we will be unable to disburse funds to this project. If we cannot disburse funds, donations to this project may be reallocated to another organization per our terms and conditions.
