At present there are an estimated 1 million people in the world who are blind in both eyes due to cataract problems. In collaboration with Al-Shifa Eye Trust Hospital, Sukkur and Ali Tareen Farms, free eye camps are conducted in Lodhran after every six months, where people are given free eye checkups, and those in need of cataract surgeries are operated on the Ali Tareen Farms in 12/MPR, Lodhran.
A medical camp was organized by LPP with collaboration of Wareesa Islam Trust where doctors affiliated with WIT attended the camp and free medical checkups and free consultation. Medical supplies and medications were also distributed amongst needy people.
With the population of persons with disabilities (PWDs) reaching close to a million, and an unchecked annual growth rate of 2.65%, crippled individuals form the largest chunk of disabled people in Pakistan of close to 5 million.
