Since then, it has taken place at least once per year. Between 1995 and September 2024, Ananda Sangh conducted 35 cataract programs.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">From August 1st to September 6, 2024, a team undertook a Remote Outreach Screening Program for the entire remote Upper Dolpo region. A total of 2,507 people were screened, and 114 were diagnosed with cataracts. All cataract patients were aged 65 or older. However, due to the long distance from their homes to the surgical site, only 62 of them were able to undergo surgery and intraocular lens implants. (The surgeries and lens implants were sponsored by another organization.) Read the report on this Outreach Screening by the coordinator, Mr. Thinly Ngodup.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">To date, Ananda Sangh has screened 86,100 people living in remote areas of Nepal. Of these, 7,256 underwent cataract surgery and received an intraocular lens implant.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In June 2025, surgeries for the <b>Ananda Sangh\u2019s 36th Free Remote Outreach Cataract Program<\/b> took place at Pullahari Monastery. Individuals with cataracts were identified through screening at 21 rural locations in the Kathmandu Valley, including Pullahari Monastery. A total of 6,296 people with impaired vision were examined.
