EYE NEWS TV | Empowering Sight: Dr. Neda Nikpoor's Mission to Eradicate Global Blindness

Meet Dr. Neda Nikpoor, MD, a dedicated cornea, cataract, and refractive surgeon whose remarkable journey in ophthalmology was inspired by a profound mission. At 19, she aspired to become an ophthalmologist after learning about the Himalayan Cataract Project, a non-profit organization she continues to collaborate with.

Dr. Nikpoor's passion lies in eradicating global blindness, and she finds immense joy in this noble endeavor. Her primary focus is treating patients with white cataracts in developing countries. Shockingly, there are 13 million people worldwide living in darkness due to cataracts, even though this condition is easily treatable with a quick 5 to 10-minute surgery that costs only $25 in materials.

Join Dr. Neda Nikpoor in her unwavering commitment to restoring sight and bringing hope to those in need. Her dedication to serving patients and her mission to combat global blindness are an inspiring example of the profound impact that compassionate healthcare professionals can have on the world.
