From Darkness to Light
Here's a great opportunity for all Responsible Corporate Ci zens
to support our visionary effort in bringing back
the Sparkle of Light to Millions of
Visually Impaired Indians!
And libera ng them from miserable darkness!
VISUAL IMPAIRMENT CRIPPLES
The misery that vision impairment inflicts on millions
of unfortunate persons is just beyond the
imagina on of most us blessed with normal vision.
We cannot even fathom the sadness of the visually
impaired one who cannot read or write, watch
movies, television, operate mobiles, recognize
people’s faces – such simple tasks for all those who
have been blessed with normal vision.
TIMELY INTERVENTION HELPS
Nearly 450 million men, women and children in India
suffer from various forms of visual impairment. More
than half this staggering number suffer the
misfortune just because what caused their visual
impairment was not detected in the early stages.
Millions of persons are just not able to seek out good
eye care professionals. There are millions of persons
who are not aware that a simple prescrip on of the
right glasses to wear can set their vision right! Or
that using a specially customized device to rec fy
acute low vision can help them to regain the joys of
God-given vision.
OPTOMETRISTS HAVE
A SIGNIFICANT ROLE
If only the visually impaired could contact and
consult a qualified Optometrist in good me, eye
vision can be easily restored and their joys of living
redeemed. When there is just one Ophthalmologist
available for every 200,000 people in India the role
of an Optometrist acquires enormous significance in
resolving most vision-related concerns.
Optometrists are fully qualified eye care
professionals who are trained and have the skills to
prescribe glasses and contact lenses, diagnose ocular
condi ons, perform diagnos c tests, and
recommend beneficial eye exercises. They also
prescribe special customized devices for people with
extremely low vision. Optometrists also regularly
par cipate in community eye care programmes even
in remote rural areas to help the visually impaired.
ESO is focused in its efforts to generate fully
qualified, trained and skilled specialist Optometrists.
ESO has already produced 500 Optometrists since its
incep on. Most of them are a ached to the top eye
hospitals in the country and abroad, and a few of
them have taken up interes ng responsibili es in
related fields.
ESO HAS A MISSION:
TO CREATE A POOL OF TALENTED
OPTOMETRISTS
The Elite School of Optometry (ESO), located in Chennai, is
the first School of Optometry in India, established in 1985,
offering a 4-year B.S. Optometry Degree Course - and Post
Graduate Programmes such as M.Phil and PhD in
Optometry. ESO’s mission was to meet the ever growing
demand for Optometrists. It is a non-profit, high profile
educa onal ins tu on for learning, started with the noble
mission of genera ng a pool of qualified Optometrists who
can contribute to the na onal endeavour of providing
excellent vision care services. In this endeavour ESO is
supported by Sankara Nethralaya and the Birla Ins tute of
Technology and Science, Pilani.
ESO is the spring board for Optometrists who,
realizing the huge gap between the demand for and
the actual availability of qualified Optometrists in
India, toil hard with total dedica on to offer top
quality eye care to vision impaired people. From ESO
alone, during the academic year 2013-2014, nearly
30,000 people were screened for eye care.
EMPOWERING
OPTOMETRISTS WITH NEW
KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS:
HALL MARK OF ESO
Through its mul -pronged efforts, ESO
has always strived to keep up with
interna onal standards on the academic
front, as also in Clinical Care and Vision
Research. Such efforts include periodic
interac on with experts in the field,
through conferences, seminars,
symposiums and workshops. These
ini a ves enable the Optometrists and
other eye care prac oners to constantly
upgrade their knowledge in the field of
optometry.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCES:
A HUGELY BENEFICIAL WAY FORWARD
As a high impact ac vity, ESO organizes Interna onal
Vision Science & Optometry Conference (EIVOC) –
3 Day Interna onal Conference once in five years,
providing a hugely beneficial Knowledge Forum for
Optometrists in India to enhance their competence,
through close and first-hand interac on with globally
renowned experts in Vision Science and Optometry.

Chairman Emeritus,
Medical Research Founda on.
Two such conferences conducted by ESO earlier, in 2005 and 2010, had been
acclaimed for the quality of the presenta ons offered and the knowledge that
the professionals gained. EIVOC’s key objec ve is to con nue to provide
India’s Optometrists such an authen c pla orm to sharpen their professional
compe veness with skills to match the ever evolving global standards. ESO
takes jus fiable pride in its efforts to raise the professional standards of
Optometrists in India.
