THE ORGANIZATION:

International (HKI) works* *to save the sight and lives of the most

programs in 21 countries in Africa and Asia as well as in the United
States. The organization combats the causes and consequences of blindness
and malnutrition by establishing programs based on evidence and research.
Each year, their programs directly benefit millions of people, and children
are a primary concern.

SUMMARY OF PROGRAM:

HKI is addressing uncorrected refractive error in Indonesia.  HKI is
increasing the capacity of lay screeners to accurately detect refractive
error in adolescent boys and girls, and adults; bring the provision of eye
glasses into schools to facilitate delivery and uptake; examine innovative
models for bringing vision screening services directly into communities;
and improve the quality of eye health program delivery through research.

HKI’s Refractive Error program provides a unique school-based delivery
mechanism which includes screening for visual acuity and refraction and a
free pair of eyeglasses to urban poor students in Jakarta. Students who
have more severe eye problems are referred for further testing and
follow-up.  The program provides training on early detection of visual
problems to teachers, parents and health workers, and raises community
awareness about the importance of good vision.
