Pakistan Urban Paediatric Eye Care Programme: evaluation
Sightsavers’ Pakistan Country Office developed a five-year project on child eye health in slum areas of five urban cities: Karachi, Rawalpindi, Lahore, Multan and Faisalabad.
The project aimed to identify children with low vision and blindness, and provide eye care treatment such as surgery, spectacles, and low-vision devices. It also aimed to increase eye health awareness in schools and communities, strengthen eye health systems by developing human resources, and establish effective programme management systems.
The end-term project evaluation aimed to explore key successes, challenges and lessons learned to inform any childhood blindness control programme in future. Publication date: January 2016.
