Ashok Mahindru lighten thousand of blind peoples

Ashok Mahindru says, “India is home to world’s largest blind population. Around 1, 20, 00, 000 people are suffering from some kind of eye problem. 80 % of them are suffering from cataract or refractive errors which are curable through a normal medical process.” “Remaining 2.1 million people are suffering from acute corneal blindness that can only be eradicated through transplantation of corneas from eye donation, which must be performed with in about 6 hours of death.” Added Mr. Ashok Mahindru.

Underlining the problem of eye donations Ashok Mahindru said, “Against this, average number of eye donations in India languishes at about 38,600 per annum implying that even an impossible wait of 112 years will not help most. On the other hand approximately 9 million people die every year and one pair of eyes from a deceased person can be implanted on two blind persons implying a potential of 1 Cr. 80 Lac corneal transplants.” Highlighting the major cause for this unfortunate situation Ashok Mahindru says is lack of awareness among our countrymen about eye donation, its need and life changing impact on entire families of cornea recipients who are able to see this beautiful world again. Therefore, there is an urgent need to raise awareness about eye donation feels Ashok Mahindru. 

With the vision of working towards total eradication of corneal blindness from the country, a Gurgaon based NGO Y P Mahindru Nirmaya Eye Bank Under Mr. Ashok Mahindru has achieved the set target of 1000 eye donations recently. Ashok Mahindru who has carried forward his father's dream initiative Y.P. Mahindru Niramaya Eye Bank, for 2012 had set the target of 1000 eye donation which was completed successfully. Many of these corneas have been transplanted by AIIMS, Delhi and PGIMS, Rohtak (Haryana) through an ongoing collaboration. 

On this occasion of 1000th successful eye donation program Mr Ashok Mahindru said that “The journey has not stopped here rather it has just begin and I will urge my fellow citizens to Enlighten someone’s world by donating your eyes”. 

Founder of the eye bank honorable Late Mr. Y.P Mahindru, father of Mr. Ashok Mahindru was a visionary philanthropist who believed that one gets deep inner satisfaction and happiness when one gets physically involved in philanthropy. Late Mr. Mahindru had worked for health care for over 6 decades and had regularly organized free eye surgery/care camps for the under privileged. Mr. Ashok Mahindru has been taking forward his father's vision by expanding the footprint through Run for Vision Foundation.

In 2004, Late Mr. Mahindru along with his son Ashok Mahindru guided a group of motivated professionals with a record experience in health and eye care to set up North India's first and largest private Eye bank with a mission of providing 'Quality Health Care to the Rural and Urban Poor". 

It is the only govt. approved eye bank in South Haryana which is registered with Eye Bank Association of India. It follows standard world class procedures and is equipped with latest technology.

With a vision to reach out to many more and bring light in their life and family, Mr. Ashok Mahindru through his organization is relentlessly working hard to set up many more such eye banks.
