Cataract accounts for 62.2% of total blindness in Nepal. And 70% of total enrolled Nepali students drop-out of school before reaching grade 10 – Weak fundamental reading and writing skills being one of the major reason.
A simple 15 surgery can cure cataract. And 4 months of remedial education can help struggling learners up their fundamentals.
Not many people can afford the surgery and not many students have access to the help they need to catch back up.Â
