For more than a decade, we have led surgical missions to Mongolia, bringing lifesaving, sight-restoring operations and other surgeries to Mongolians while educating local surgeons and healthcare professionals. To date, we have served more than 10,000 patients and performed hundreds of surgeries in Mongolia. In addition, we’ve provided thousands of hours of best-in-class clinical training to local surgeons. Our teams consist of specialists skilled in oculofacial plastic, cataract, glaucoma, ocular tumor and strabismus surgery as well as anesthesiologists, pediatric intensivists, liver surgeons, ENT and head and neck surgeons, neurosurgeons and others.
