Make them see it~

According to the World Health Organisation, there are 284 million visually impaired people in the world -- 39 million are blind and 245 have low vision.

About 90 percent of them live in developing countries.

Eye donation means donating one's corneas after his or her death. In India, there are many organisations that act as eye banks that facilitate removal of corneas and distribute them to the needy.

Cornea is a clear tissue -- a focusing element -- that covers the front of the eye. People suffering from corneal blindness only can benefit from eye donations through corneal grafting.

State run telecom companies BSNL and MTNL have a toll free number 1919 all over the country to facilitate easy access to the nearest eye bank.

Somebody did a good analysis

…

Thanks for that

India's Total Population 118 Crores.
        Daily Death - 62389
        Daily Birth - 86853
         Total Blinds - 682497

If Daily Dead People Donate their Eyes, within 11 Days all Blinds will be able to See.

Then in India there will be NO Blind Person.
