An Unwavering Vision Since 1989
Al Basar International Foundation was established in 1989 to provide free eye care services to underserved communities worldwide. Recognising the widespread lack of basic eye care in developing countries, a dedicated team of medical professionals and volunteers committed to fighting preventable blindness.
"Initially focused on outreach programmes, we sent teams to remote areas to offer free cataract surgeries, eye exams, and glasses."
Over time, the organisation has expanded its global outreach and established a permanent network of eye hospitals across Africa and Asia, ensuring sustainable access to quality eye care. By 2025, over 29 million people have been assisted globally through our comprehensive programmes.

Through our structured screening missions, permanent state-of-the-art diagnostic facilities, and local medical scholarship colleges.
