Overview

Mission

Our mission is to provide comprehensive eye health services, education, and support to underserved communities across africa and asia. We strive to: prevent blindness through early detection and treatment of eye diseases. Improve access to affordable and quality eye care services for those in need. Empower individuals with knowledge and resources to maintain healthy vision. Foster sustainable solutions and partnerships to address the root causes of visual impairment and blindness. By setting a clear vision and mission, this eye charity organization aims to make a meaningful impact on global eye health, empower individuals, and work towards a future where preventable blindness is no longer a barrier to living a fulfilling and healthy life.

What it reported doing in 2025

Mobile eye treatment & surgery clinic dar bouazza, morocco (june 2028, 2025) during a focused nine-day deployment, al basar USA successfully delivered high-impact eye care services through its mobile eye treatment & surgery clinic to dar bouazza, morocco. The initiative treated approximately 3,600 patients, performed a total of 373 sight-restoring surgeries (of which 358 included intraocular lens (iol) implants) and distributed 1,100 pairs of eyeglasses. These outcomes reflect both clinical efficiency and meaningful humanitarian impact, restoring vision, independence, and economic potential for hundreds of individuals. Notably, al basar USA delivers exceptional cost efficiency, where approximately 100 can fund a cataract surgery that would typically cost up to 7,000 in the united states, maximizing the impact of every donor dollar.
