Dr. Sanduk Ruit from Nepal has been called the “Miracle Doctor” for good reason. Over the past decades, he has restored eyesight to more than 100,000 people across Asia and Africa—completely free of charge.
He pioneered a low-cost cataract surgery that takes only minutes but transforms lives forever. With the Tilganga Institute of Ophthalmology, which he co-founded, Dr. Ruit doesn’t just perform surgeries. He trains doctors, manufactures affordable lenses, and ensures treatment reaches even the most remote villages.
For many patients, the moment they see again—after years of blindness—is nothing short of rebirth. His work has earned him global recognition, but he remains focused on a single mission: to end preventable blindness.
Do you think more of the world’s billionaires should fund efforts like this—where even small investments can change millions of lives?
