In January 2011, the Ranchhod Group sponsored two Free Eye Camps in co-operation with the Rotary Eye Institute in Navsari. This project saw a total of 1355 patients examined, 463 of which received subsequent cataract operations and 363 patients with refractive error were given glasses. The Ranchhod family personally attended these camps and were “overwhelmed at the sight of such a huge crowd of patients and their relatives queuing for an examination from morning to late afternoon in order to receive a basic necessity for living – that of sight”.
