Abstract : Sankara Eye Foundation India (SEFI) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing high-quality eye care services to the underprivileged and marginalized segments of society for the past 45 years. Established as a modest primary health care center in 1977 by Dr. R.V. Ramani and Dr. Radha Ramani, Sankara has evolved into one of the largest and rapidly growing social enterprises, managing a network of 12 hospitals equipped with top-notch facilities and robust infrastructure. These hospitals serve both rural and urban populations [1].
