GoodVision’s one-year eye screening training program in Burkina Faso has received official recognition from the country’s government, marking a significant step in improving access to vision care. The program trains local eye care specialists to perform basic eye screenings, addressing the critical global shortage of eye care professionals.
With 950 million people worldwide lacking access to basic vision care, this recognition helps integrate GoodVision’s innovative, community-based model into Burkina Faso’s national health system, making eye care more accessible and sustainable for underserved communities.
This milestone highlights the growing impact of GoodVision’s approach in empowering local communities to deliver life-changing vision care.
