The main objective of GEF has been to take quality eye care services to remote places and to the poorest. In this direction GEF has drawn out an elaborate plan of activity in Kolar, Chikballapur, Bangalore Rural and Urban, in the state of Karnataka, to cover most of the areas that have otherwise remained uncovered.
GEF conducts more than 20 outreach programmes a month, in collaboration with National Programme for Control of Blindness (NPCB), ROTARY, HELP AGE INDIA, RAMA KRISHNA MISSION and BOTHRA FOUNDATION.
The outreach programmes involve organizing screening camps for all avoidable diseases causing blindness
such as Cataract, Glaucoma, Refractive Error and Diabetic Retinopathy in the designated areas for treating
them. Patients requiring surgery or treatment in the hospital are brought to the hospital by the hospital
vehicle and treated. Their transport, food, treatment and follow up are all provided free of cost.
GEF also organise eye screening programmes for school children and the employees of factories and corporate offices. GEF is engaged in Eye Health Education, awareness programmes like lectures and training workshops and active participation in programmes like World Sight Day.
