• Finding of studies conducted by different organizations:• One million people are totally blind• Two million people are partially blind who are
unable to support themselves and to contribute to the national development.
• 75% of those could either by prevented or cured by early detection and treatment.
BACKGROUND OF BANGLADESH
• Population 2005 (extrapolated) : 130.8 million• No. of hospitals providing Eye Care Services: 132
(Govt-65, NGO-54, Private-13)• Total qualified ophthalmologist: 750• Total Non-Ophthalmologists but working in eye
care: 268• Total number of cataract surgeons: 450• Total MLEP: 708• Total number of Cataract Surgery: 131475• Cataract Surgical Rate: 1006• Paediatric Cataract Surgery: 4243• Total number of Eye Beds: 3179• Total number of teaching hospital: 26
NATIONAL SUMMARY
• Over 750,000 blind• 650,000 due to cataract (80% of total blindness)• Over 6 million need vision correction by
spectacles and other means• Approx. 150,000 irreversible blind which need
rehabilitation• Approx. 40,000 children are blind of which 12,000
are due to cataract and can be cured by surgery• 80% of the above live in rural areas• 90% of the doctors and their helpers live in towns

BANGLADESH BLINDNESS PROFILE
• Between 2,400 and 3,000 cataract operations are required/million population/year in Bangladesh to control cataract blindness
• This translates to a total of 314,000-392,000 cataract operations annually
• Currently about 131,000 cataract operations are being done which represents 42% of the estimated need

CATARACT SURGERY
Minimum CSR required = 1,200-1,500/mill/yearto deal with the current backlog.
This rate needs to be doubled as
• Demand is increasing and surgery being done earlier
• The population is ageing• Second eyes are being operated upon
CSR to control cataract blindness = 2,400-3,000/mill/year
CATARACT SURGICAL RATE REQUIRED
