Gift of Sight

Al-Shifa Foundation of North America (AFNA) is proud of supporting the eye care projects of Al-Shifa Trust eye hospitals in Pakistan which have treated over six million patients since the opening of its first hospital in 1991. In Financial Year 2020-21, Al-Shifa treated over 900,000 patients at the six state-of-the-art eye hospitals in Rawalpindi, Muzaffarabad, Chakwal, Kohat, Sukkur and at the over 150 Eye Camps. Additionally, over 73,000 surgeries (including laser surgeries and cataract removal) were performed.

We ( AST/ AFNA) gifted another MyEye Orcam device to a 27-year old brilliant MPhil student Muhammad Talha Masood who lost his eyesight in a bomb explosion. Despite all the tragedy he faced, his motivation and faith didn’t stop him to excel in his field.

He’s not only a student but a Blogger, motivational speaker, writer and Hafiz-e-Quran as well. He’s truly an inspiration for all of us. This Device will help him in mobility since his hands were also damaged in the bomb explosion. His hard copy books will also be saved in this device thus helping him excel in his future endeavors.

President AST declared that this MyEye Orcam device would be provided to the most deserving candidates who have the drive to contribute to the society and have the ability to excel in their respective fields.

Thumbs up for AST for their great contribution in fighting blindness.

Every day a child is enabled to see their mother for the first time – bringing joyful tears to all, vision is restored to jobless youths thus enabling them to become earning members of the family, and scores of elderly are helped to live their lives happily and independently.

At Al-Shifa, we help retrieve the colors of life! “Yes I can see,” this was the spontaneous response of Mutalli, who was recently restored vision after a successful operation at Al-Shifa Eye Trust Hospital. Please donate generously and make a difference in changing the lives of thousands of needy patients.
