Restoring Sight and Dignity: Help Us Double the Impact of Cataract Surgeries in Mexico!
Imagine waking up tomorrow and finding that you can no longer see—the warm smiles of your loved ones, the meals you lovingly prepare, even the familiar path outside your door—all suddenly hidden in darkness.
For thousands of people in Mexico, this is a daily reality. Cataracts are the leading cause of blindness in the country, yet they can be corrected with a quick and painless surgery. Sadly, for those living in rural, low-income communities, this care is out of reach. As a result, many remain blind for years—sometimes for the rest of their lives.
That’s why PRASAD de México provides free cataract surgeries, restoring sight, independence, and dignity to those who need it most.
And why we’re excited to be launching our 2X Matching Gift Campaign next week to help fund 125 cataract surgeries over the next few months!
Cataracts aren’t only a problem in Mexico. They’re also a leading cause of vision loss in the United States.
The good news is that there are simple steps you can take to protect your eyesight. To support your eye health, we’ve put together a short blog with practical tips you can follow at any age.
While eye healthcare may be more accessible here, it’s important to take steps to prevent disease. Read our newest blog: 6 Easy Ways to Protect Your Eyesight.
Thank you for helping us restore sight for those in need.
Warm regards,
Dr. M Cecilia Escarra
Executive Director
PRASAD
