Annual Review 2008 LRBT FREE EYE CARE Website: www.lrbt.org.pk A The first and foremost of our Guiding Principles Our visionary founders had envisaged a network of free eye hospitals across the length and breadth of Pakistan. They wanted that no Pakistani should be more than 200 kilometres No man, from an LRBT hospital or clinic across the country. LRBT's network of 15 hospitals and 37 eye clinics woman or child provide appropriate state-of-the-art eye-care. Rampant inflation, especially in food and energy, has driven two out of every three Pakistanis below the should go blind poverty line. Research in Pakistan has shown consistently that one of the greatest income shocks among low income groups is medical expenditure. LRBT, with its policy of free first-class eye-care, without any simply because discrimination, is one of the few national safety nets that the poor blind and impaired vision people have in they cannot afford Pakistan. Here is a glimpse of how LRBT helps in easing the life of two-thirds of our countrymen, who live in abject poverty the treatment. in all the four provinces of Pakistan. In Pakistan’s four provinces, LRBT’s hospitals, clinics and mobile-screening camps with highly qualified eye specialists, nursing staff and medicines, all of which are free, are a welcome sight for the 18.2 million people who are either blind or visually impaired. Sometimes it is good to drop a few names – late Graham Layton and Zaka Rahmatulla’s deep compassion, resources Life in and business expertise led to the launching of LRBT, an organisation, which has saved 14.6 million patients from a life of darkness, They can, once again, see the colours of life. This would not have been possible without the generosity of all its our late founder members and our ever increasing donors. COLOURS Sindh, has a population of 38 million, the Sindhvast bulk of whom, live in abject poverty. Eye-care facilities especially in smaller towns and rural areas are limited and are far beyond the reach of the poor. In these inflationary times, even for the lower middle class, LRBT is their only hope. We have four hospitals in Sindh: and inside, awaiting their turn. No one is Korangi (Karachi) the Tertiary Hospital turned back and no one is seen out of is an eye-opener with cutting-edge turn.

The Akora Khattak Hospital has been expanded, recently, to cater for the ever-growing volume of patients. The Mansehra hospital, which was set up in November 2005, shortly after the earthquake in rented premises, is being replaced by a permanent purpose built state-of-the-art hospital which will open by end of 2008. Despite the law and order problems, our hospitals continue to serve the patients flocking to our hospitals where they receive the same high quality treatment which is the hallmark of LRBT. Our hearts and minds are always open to them and their problems and their struggle for existence. Balochistan, with its rugged terrain, is BalochiPakistan's biggest province but is very stan sparsely populated. This presents serious problems on how to deliver eye-care to its population of 8 million. The problem is compounded by inadequate communications. LRBT has addressed this by establishing hospitals in Quetta & Sibi, the two largest towns and by arranging OPD and cataract surgeries at Gawadar and Turbat once a month. In addition, primary eye-care clinics are also functioning at Mastung and Pishin. We also carry out eye-screening camps in other small towns and rural areas to treat simple problems on the spot and refer those patients requiring surgeries Name Ghulam Qadir to our Quetta hospital.

Mercy Corps, Pakistan ͳ EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The monsoon rains that started in the second week of August 2011 triggered serious flooding affecting more than 5.3 million people. It is reported to have destroyed or damaged nearly one million houses and inundated 4.2 million acres of cropland, prompting the Government of Pakistan to call for support from the United Nations. The National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) and the Provincial Disaster Management Authority (PDMA) for Sindh mobilized its resources relatively quickly, however their response was far too limited compared with the needs of so many people. During the contingency planning phase, they estimated resources adequate to the temporary care of some 50,000 IDPs. The situation had worsened nearly a month after the start of the emergency and the national authorities requested international support. At that point, the NDMA and PDMA indicated that between 5.3 million flood-affected people of Lower Sindh were in urgent need of assistance.
