This document discusses eye donation and blindness in India. It provides statistics on the blind population in India and how eye donation could help address it. It explains that corneal blindness is a major cause of blindness that can be treated through cornea transplants. The document aims to increase awareness of eye donation and dispel myths about the process. It outlines the Rotary Club of Mumbai Kandivali West's vision and goals for providing eye care services and increasing eye donations in the community.
This document discusses eye donation and corneal blindness. It notes that the cornea can become damaged from disease, injury or infection, causing vision loss. Corneal blindness disproportionately affects children and young adults. While approximately 1.1 million people in India are waiting for corneal transplants, only 20,000-25,000 donated eyes are collected annually. Eye donation can provide sight to two people through transplantation of a single donated cornea. The document encourages pledging eyes after death and increasing awareness of eye donation.
This document discusses eye donation and its importance in India. It notes that India has 30% of global blindness, with 52 million visually impaired people and 1 in 1000 children being blind. Only 40,720 eyes are collected annually to help the 20-25,000 new cases of corneal blindness each year. The cornea can be donated within 6-8 hours of death to help restore sight to those suffering from corneal blindness. While myths exist, all religions support eye donation, only the cornea is removed in a short procedure, and anyone can pledge their eyes regardless of age, gender, medical conditions or religion. The document appeals for people to pledge and donate their eyes.
The document discusses eye donation and the need for more donors. It notes that 1.5% of the population is unnecessarily blind and many children suffer from lack of access to eye care and corrective lenses. Registering as an eye donor allows you to help others see after your death. It's a simple process where eye banks retrieve the eyes without disfiguring the body, and all major religions support donation. The corneas can be transplanted to restore sight for those with corneal diseases.

This document discusses the role of general practitioners in promoting eye donation in India. It notes that while there are over 52 million visually impaired people in India, only around 40,000 cornea transplants are performed each year due to a lack of donated eyes. General practitioners are well-positioned to encourage eye donation as they are often trusted by families and issue death certificates. The document recommends several ways general practitioners can help boost donation rates, such as providing eye donation information and forms in their clinics.
ORIENTATION PROGRAMON EYE DONATION
1)Do you know...
There are approximately 1.2 crore blind people in India.
Of these around 20 lakh corneally blind are in need of corneal transplantation.
As against an annual requirement of 75,000 to 1,00,000 corneas, only 22,000 corneas are donated in India at present.
2)Facts about eye donation:
Eyes can be donated only after death.
Eyes must be removed within 4 - 6 hours after death.
Eyes can be removed by Registered Medical Practitioner only.
The eye bank team will remove the eyes from the home of the deceased or from a hospital.
A small quantity of blood will be drawn to rule out communicable diseases.
The identities of both the donor and the recipient are kept confidential.
3) What is an eye bank?
An eye bank is the link between the donor and recipient/eye surgeon. It is an organization recognized by government to collect and distribute human eyes to those who require cornea transplants.
5. Who can donate eyes?
Eye donors could be of any age group or sex. People who use spectacles, diabetics, patients with high blood pressure, asthma patients and those without communicable diseases can donate eyes.

Eye donation involves removing the cornea from a deceased donor's eyes within 4-6 hours of death to provide vision to those suffering from corneal blindness or low vision. Globally, 4.6 million people experience corneal blindness due to conditions like infections, injuries, malnutrition or congenital disorders. The cornea is a thin transparent tissue at the front of the eye that can be replaced through corneal transplantation if it becomes cloudy or damaged. Donated corneas are preserved and stored by eye banks until being distributed for transplantation surgery. However, around 50% of donated corneas in India currently go unused due to factors like delayed retrieval, infection or improper storage.
This document is an eye donation quiz that aims to spread awareness about eye donation. It contains multiple choice questions about various aspects of eye donation, such as who can donate eyes, what parts of the eye are donated, the process of eye donation after death, and the role of eye banks. The key points are that eyes can only be donated after death, the cornea is the part that is donated to help restore sight to the blind, and eye banks coordinate between donors and eye hospitals to facilitate transplants within 6 hours of death.
This document summarizes the journey of a donated cornea from donor to recipient. It begins with an individual or family signing up to be a donor. If eligible after screening, the eye bank recovers the corneas within 24 hours of death. The corneas then undergo evaluation and are matched with recipients needing transplants. In 2013, Saving Sight recovered over 2,600 corneas and provided them for transplants, giving the gift of sight to many individuals. The document outlines each step of the donation and transplantation process.
Corneal transplantation, also known as corneal grafting, is a surgical procedure where a damaged or diseased cornea is replaced by donated corneal tissue. The cornea is the clear tissue covering the front of the eye that allows light to enter. Corneal blindness affects mainly children and young adults and can be caused by injuries, infections, malnutrition, chemical burns, or postoperative complications. Donated eyes can restore sight to those suffering from corneal blindness through transplantation, but there is a shortage of donor eyes in Pakistan resulting in long waitlists of patients needing transplants.
1) The document promotes an initiative called "Gift Your Sight" to increase awareness about eye donation and address the gap between supply and demand of donated eyes in India.
2) It provides information on how donating eyes after death can help restore sight to two people with corneal blindness. The cornea can become damaged through various causes leading to blindness.
3) The author has been working to increase awareness through various activities like organizing camps, blogging, and speaking on the radio to encourage people to pledge and donate their eyes after death.
This document summarizes an eye donation awareness program presented by Durgapur Blind Relief Society (DBRS). It discusses that DBRS has been working to eradicate and prevent blindness in West Bengal since 1986 through various awareness and screening programs. It encourages people to donate their eyes after death which can help restore sight to the blind through corneal transplantation. It provides key information on who can donate, the donation process, and addresses common questions about eye donation.
The document discusses corneal transplantation as a way to restore vision for corneal blindness in India. It notes that over 120 million people in India are blind in both eyes, comprising one quarter of the world's total blind population. However, there is a severe lack of donors for corneal transplantation in India due to issues like lack of awareness, social and religious beliefs, and improper infrastructure development. The document calls for awareness campaigns through healthcare teams, media, and educational institutions to increase donors and address the donor shortage.
The document discusses eye donation and the importance of donating one's eyes after death. It notes that sight is a precious gift and that without sight, the world is closed off. It also explains that donating one's eyes can help restore sight to two people through corneal transplantation and help those who are corneal blind. The document encourages pledging to donate one's eyes after death in order to give the gift of sight to others.
1.5 million Indians suffer from corneal blindness each year, but only 15,000 corneas were collected last year to treat them. There is a huge gap between the number of people who need cornea transplants and the number of transplants performed. The document advocates for increasing awareness of eye donation and expanding donation programs to help the millions of people waiting for transplants.
The document discusses the importance of eye care and vision screenings. It notes that many common eye conditions like glaucoma, cataracts, and macular degeneration are more likely to cause vision impairment if left untreated. Age is also a major risk factor, as several aspects of vision and eye health decline with age, such as pupil size and responsiveness to light. Regular eye exams are important for detecting issues early and maintaining eye health.
This document summarizes rehabilitation for blindness. It defines blindness as visual acuity less than 3/60 or visual field loss of less than 10 degrees in the better eye. Rehabilitation aims to restore functional ability and independence for those who have lost vision. Types of rehabilitation include educational, vocational, and training for daily activities and mobility using methods like Braille, audio technology, and mobility aids. The document also lists organizations supporting the blind and examples of innovative technologies to help blind individuals navigate and experience the world.

The document outlines the organization's objectives to promote awareness of eye donations and involve more volunteers. It discusses who can donate eyes, the causes of corneal blindness, and myths versus realities about eye donations. The overall goal is to remove blindness in India by maximizing pledges and donations to help the millions suffering from corneal blindness.
This document discusses the role of general practitioners in promoting eye donation in India. It notes that while there are over 52 million visually impaired people in India, only around 40,000 cornea transplants are performed each year due to a lack of donated eyes. General practitioners are well-positioned to encourage eye donation as they are often trusted by families and issue death certificates. The document advocates for GPs promoting donation through posters, brochures, and carrying donation forms to make the process more convenient.
Three key points from the document:
1. The document discusses aging and vision loss, arguing that we should reframe aging as a time of opportunity to maintain ability rather than a decline. It notes that many vision conditions like macular degeneration are treatable if caught early.
2. Over 50,000 Canadians will lose their sight each year due to conditions like macular degeneration and over 5.5 million Canadians already live with eye diseases that could cause vision loss. Access to treatments is important to maintain independence.
3. New research on microRNAs may help doctors determine in advance if someone will develop wet age-related macular degeneration, the leading cause of vision loss in older adults. This
This document discusses corneal blindness in Bangladesh and eye donation. It notes that over 800,000 people are blind in Bangladesh, mostly due to cataract and corneal disorders. Corneal blindness particularly impacts children and young adults. The cornea is the transparent tissue covering the eye that allows light to enter. Vision is lost if the cornea becomes cloudy due to disease, injury or infection. While blindness cannot always be prevented, sight can be restored through corneal transplantation by grafting a healthy donor cornea. The document encourages eye donation after death so that donated corneas can restore sight to the blind, noting there is a large unmet demand for donor corneas in Bangladesh.
This document discusses primary eye care and the role of ophthalmic officers. It defines primary eye care as the promotion of eye health, prevention and treatment of conditions leading to vision loss, and rehabilitation for the blind. The key activities of primary eye care are outlined as creating awareness, prevention through behaviors and environment, curative activities like treating common eye diseases, and rehabilitation for the incurably blind.

Physical therapists are exercise experts, providing services for a wide range of people to
optimise their physical ability. They prescribe exercise as part of a structured, safe, and
effective programme.
An important part of their role is to help people remain active as they age. More than any other
profession, physical therapists (known in many countries as physiotherapists) prevent and treat
chronic disease and disability in aging adults through specifically prescribed activity and
movement.
The World Health Organization encourages regular physical activity for older adults, because it
has been shown to improve the functional status and quality of life in this group of individuals.
Tadhg crowley primary care in an integrated settingInvestnet
This document discusses the importance of integrated primary care and outlines some key points:
1) Primary care requires activity, people, systems and infrastructure working in a dynamic equilibrium with secondary and tertiary care services.
2) Chronic disease management, radiology, minor surgery, colonoscopies and other services need to be integrated and accessible through primary care teams.
3) Barriers to effective primary care include siloed thinking between specialties, lack of GP involvement in planning, and money not following the patient to where care is delivered.

Save the Children holds monthly health camps in Delhi to provide healthcare services to underserved communities. Many residents of Delhi live in unplanned settlements with poor sanitation, placing children's health at risk for illnesses like diarrhea and pneumonia. The health camps aim to reduce this gap in healthcare access by offering free basic services like medical exams, treatment, medication and health advice to marginalized groups. However, more efforts are still needed from the government to improve child healthcare, such as increasing spending on health care to 5% of GDP.
This document discusses vaccine-preventable diseases like pneumonia and measles. Pneumonia is a major cause of death for children under 5 in India, killing over 1 child per minute. While efforts have been made to address pneumonia, it persists due to lack of awareness, vaccination coverage, and implementation of prevention guidelines. Measles also kills over 90,000 children annually in India. Measles mortality has decreased globally with vaccination but coverage remains low in India. Improving vaccine access and addressing social determinants are needed to control these deadly but preventable diseases.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.
