New Delhi, September 17, 2018: The National Eye Donation Fortnight is celebrated every year from 25th August to8th September. The celebration of the great campaign is go through very well inorder to promote the eye donation process as well as to put forth thesignificant message to the people for being the special part of eye donation oreye pledging for giving normal life to the common public.
To create awarenessamongst the people about Eye Donation,Centre For Sight came up with #NazarLagJaye Campaign. In India, Nazar Lag janais considered as a negative phrase and every Indian comes across this termwhenever something bad happens. Centre For Sight wanted to change the outlookto this phrase in a positive manner. Hence the campaign #NazarLagJaye waslaunched this year by CFS, communicating that 12 Million Blind People arewaiting and praying that “Unhe kisi ki Nazar Lag Jaye”
Eye donation allows eachone a chance to perform social good. It costs us nothing and makes no demand onour time. Our eyes, that we burn or bury after death, can be recycled intopriceless gift of vision for millions of our corneally blind citizens. Keepingthis in mind, CFS incepted a campaign to raise awareness around Eye Donationand increase the willingness of people to donate eyes. Anyone can be a donor,irrespective of age, sex, blood group or religion. In the end it’s all aboutmaking someone’s future brighter with your eyes.
From each pair of donatedeyes, two blind people will get vision and light into their life, thus makingit more divine.
Donated eyes can be alsoused to restore vision of people who are suffering from corneal blindness.
The other portions of theeye can be used to develop cures for some of the common eye diseases forresearch and training purposes.
Preferable to complete theprocedure within 6-8 hours after death.Trained staff will come and perform theprocedure, which takes only 15-20 minutes. No damage would be caused during theprocedure.
Let us all join hands inthis initiative by Centre For Sight and wish that “Inn Sabko Humari Nazar LagJaye”.
