The association with Sankara Eye Foundation, USA has helped H.V. Desai Eye Hospitals make the leap towards bigger and better infrastructure - from 95 beds and 18,000 free eye surgery capacity to 400 beds and 56,000 free surgery capacity - at Pune Hospital. An upcoming hospital in Solapur, Maharashtra will add 115 beds and 20,000 free surgeries annually.

Pervez has a vision of his own – From the current 56,000 free eye surgeries, he aims to double the number bringing it to 1,15,000 free eye surgeries by 2030. “It's the least we can do,” he says. “Vision 2030 has given us renewed vigor, and we will go to any lengths to fulfill it.”

“It’s a realistic goal. And it’s our RESOLVE to achieve it.”
