MILLIONS OF BABIES ARE EXPERIENCING AVOIDABLE BLINDNESS.
A premature infant blindness epidemic is recurring in middle and low income countries. High-income countries aren’t in the clear yet either.
Small World Vision lives to eradicate childhood blindness.
ROP IS ROBBING BABIES BLIND
15 million babies are born prematurely each year. In many countries, the absence of basic medical devices and treatments leave many with life altering conditions. One of these is ROP.
OUR MISSION
Babies in Appalachia or Mexico have the same right to medical care as a child in Beverly Hills. Unfortunately, economics speak loudly in determining a child’s quality of life. Through innovation, strategic partnerships and relentless compassion, we can eliminate blindness one baby at a time.
