Bihar alone has over 4.3 million visually impaired, and 700,000 blind people. Blindness intensifies the social
vulnerability and helplessness of these people. The impact of poor vision is compounded when living in poverty, with
weak infrastructure and high illiteracy. A majority of people cannot afford treatment and cannot reach the eye care
facilities, which are sparsely distributed in the state.
