The 41st Free Eye Checkup and Cataract Surgery Camp by SOS/SKRM in Delhi restored vision for 1,200 patients, significantly enhancing lives across the region.

The Science of Spirituality (SOS) and Sawan Kirpal Ruhani Mission (SKRM) successfully conducted its 41st Free Eye Checkup and Cataract Surgery Camp at Kirpal Bagh, Delhi, from September 14 to 21, 2025. Under the guidance of Sant Rajinder Singh Ji Maharaj, this initiative helped 1,200 patients regain their vision, making a positive impact on lives throughout Delhi NCR and northern India.

Cataracts are a leading cause of visual impairment, particularly in underserved communities, where they can severely affect both livelihoods and quality of life. The camp was organized with the support of volunteer physicians from the United States and expert doctors from ICARE Hospital in Noida, providing advanced eye care to those who could not afford treatment.

During the eight-day event, a total of 2,771 individuals were screened, with 1,685 patients found eligible for cataract surgery. Participants received comprehensive care, which included free accommodation, meals, transportation, reading glasses, and other essential support services.

Volunteers from SKRM played a crucial role in facilitating patient registration, managing logistics, and ensuring smooth operations throughout the camp. Surgeries were performed at ICARE Eye Hospital, utilizing high-quality lenses and benefiting from the skilled supervision of both local and international doctors.

For many patients, the camp represented a turning point in their lives, granting them newfound independence. Jogender Pal, a resident of Delhi, expressed that the surgery would enable him to lead a self-reliant life. Similarly, Sheela and Narang Devi shared their joy and relief at regaining their vision, which significantly improved their quality of life.

Volunteers and doctors involved in the camp described the experience as profoundly fulfilling. A physician from the United States remarked, “Restoring sight lets the light of life shine again.”

SOS/SKRM has a long-standing tradition of selfless service, having assisted over 21,000 individuals in regaining their eyesight through free medical and eye camps. This initiative embodies the organization’s commitment to compassion and humanitarian care.
