Swami Lokeswarananda Maharaj
NANRITAM , a not for profit welfare organization (Redg. No. S/1l/8102 of 2001 – 02) upon undertaking the integrated rural development project in the extreme remote, underdeveloped and tribal villages of Purulia , West Bengal, realized that eye problems especially cataract induced blindness is a major health issue among the concerned population. Lack of awareness (that the eye problem is treatable) coupled with absence of proper medical services was pushing a significant proportion of the concerned population into the realm of darkness, hence a burden for their families and society at large.
NANRITAM, in an effort to provide timely medical intervention and prevent needless blindness launched an eye-care programme in 2006 from a mud hut based in Para block of Purulia. The programme started off as monthly clinics by the ophthalmologists travelling from Kolkata. The cataract cases detected at the clinics were taken to Kolkata where operations were performed at surgeon's city based eye-care centre and patients were then brought back to their base villages. All services were provided absolutely free of cost, with due care and compassion. Increase in quantum of cataract cases detected demanded that facilities be set-up in Para itself to perform the surgeries. The first step towards this horizon was setting up of a 6 bedded eye-care hospital at Para in 2008. Today, the humble 6 bedded eye-care initiative has taken the shape of a 100 bedded Tertiary level, Referral eye-care Super-Specialty Hospital -- Lokeswarananda Eye Foundation(LEF).
Lokeswarananda Eye Foundation currently runs cataract clinics, glaucoma clinics, squint clinics and retina clinics. The outreach activities of Lokeswarananda Eye Foundation cover LWE blocks of Purulia, Bankura and Paschim Medinipur , non LWE blocks of same districts in West Bengal and some areas of Jharkhand . In the past financial year, Lokeswarananda Eye Foundation has touched and changed the lives of over 2,02,602 patients and has conducted a total of 1243 out-reach clinics.
JOURNEY BEGINS
At Lokeswarananda Eye Foundation(LEF), we believe that each individual has the right to live with dignity and independence. Absence of vision makes a person dependent on others and a liability to their families. The most vulnerable population are those residing in remote, interior, underdeveloped villages. Our mission is to reach out to as many such patients and help to restore their vision, thereby gifting the patients a second, colourful life.
Regular OPD services started at Para, Purulia with few basic instruments at this mud house in the year 2007.
