What We Do

Seva is a global nonprofit eye care organization that transforms lives and strengthens communities by restoring sight and preventing blindness. Since 1978, we have worked with local communities in more than 20 countries to develop self-sustaining eye care programs. Together we provide critical eye care to underserved communities, especially women, children, and indigenous peoples.

Seva has provided surgeries, eyeglasses, medicine, and other eye care services to 57 million people over our four decades of service.

Why It Matters

Over a billion people live with unaddressed vision impairments and hundreds of millions more need ongoing eye care. Thankfully, 90% of all vision impairment can be prevented or cured with your help. Restoring sight is one of the most effective ways to relieve suffering and reduce poverty.
