In May, our team was able to visit the Savitri Waney Eye Centre in Purnea, Bihar, a 60 bed hospital supported by a team of 70 people. Due to Covid restrictions, we had been unable to see the hospital since its opening in October 2020. During our visit we were able to explore every aspect of the hospital, making for a very busy trip!

Inauguration of Savitri’s new Eye Hospital in Purnea, Bihar
It is with immense joy we announce that on the occasion of World Sight Day 2020, the new ‘Akhand Jyoti Eye Hospital – Savitri Waney Charitable Eye Centre’ was inaugurated and opened to patients. Specifically chosen for its location, the new 60-bed hospital has been designed to serve a particularly underprivileged region of Bihar, offering curative and preventive eye care services – both affordable and accessible – to communities most in need.
