This book tells the story Sanduk Ruit, an eye surgeon, whose death of his older sister led him to medicine. Ruit treks the far-flung towns to conduct eye camps, on the spot eye surgeries and almost instantly restored the sight of grateful country folks. He also devised techniques to achieve hospital-quality standards of precision and sterility under makeshift conditions. He opened the Tilganga Eye Center ( TEC ) in 1994 in Nepal. Ruit led the operation of the center that trains eye-care paramedics, medical residents, and nurses as well as visiting surgeons from Asia, North America, Europe and Australia. It also manufactures extremely high-quality intraocular lenses for surgery and makes it available to needy recipients in some fifty countries for less than USD 5.00 a piece.
