SAVE VISION Dr. Parvaiz Malik, FIMA president, received the Award in ACP-Ceremony on April 23th, 2009 9 . Concluding remarks: Since its inception in January 2005, FIMA Save Vision experience represents a case example of international move forward in public health, particularly community eye health. The effort has been largely silent, humble and without media elaboration. Over time, the program culminated in creating tremendous impact in improving equity, access and coverage in needy, marginalized communities in Africa and Asia. The approach has been to mobilize and coordinate voluntary resources, foster local, regional and international collaborations, and create local ownerships and sustainability by local qualified medical manpower that insure continuities and effectiveness of the program. Qualified ophthalmologists went outside their countries to participate in Save Vision activities in other needy communities. There were significant pitfalls and deficiencies in implementation of the program which is still expected to evolve and correct some of its methodical shortcomings to go forward. The future horizons are loaded with grim global statistics which indicate that one human being, somewhere in the world, goes blinds every five seconds. Hence, more dedicated efforts are needed in the years ahead. References: 1.Magnitude and causes of visual impairment. Fact sheet number 282. World Health Organization.
