GIFT OF SIGHT APPLICATION FORM
Cataracts and uncorrected refractive errors represent the primary causes of blindness globally. The Gift of Sight Trust is dedicated to alleviating this burden by offering partial funding for cataract and refractive surgeries.
Cataract occurs when the natural lens in the eye becomes cloudy and rigid. Surgery involves removing this cloudy lens and replacing it with a clear artificial lens. Refractive corneal laser surgery, on the other hand, corrects refractive errors such as myopia (short-sightedness), hyperopia (far-sightedness), and astigmatism (irregular cornea) by permanently altering the shape of the cornea. These procedures aim to restore clear vision and improve the quality of life for individuals affected by these conditions.
If you are interested in applying for sponsorship of these procedures through the Gift of Sight Trust, please complete the following questionnaire.
