about pob

Since its inception in May 2015, POB Trust Eye hospital has come a long way and made a huge impact. It is now a well known and respectable welfare unit with high quality services without any discrimination of color, race or wealth. The purpose built facility is equipped with the most sophisticated diagnostic and surgical equipment and all these we owe to the courtesy and donation of our well wishers. It had been our dream to build centers in all major districts of Karachi to cater for eye care near the homes of the patients. Alhumdulillah in this aspect we now have a facility at Dhoraji, where we are working in coordination with the Adamjee foundation. It is a fully functional unit catering for outpatient and surgery. The third facility has been started at Hussainabad where there is a secondary care unit catering for about 200 patients per day and about 450 surgeries monthly. The Fourth unit is under construction at Surjani town, Muhammad Rafiq Unit and is almost near completion. Hopefully in six months time, we should be able to start seeing patients there. In Orangi town we have acquired land of 800 sq yards to build a hospital there In Sha Allah coming year, we will have another hospital, so this brings our dream to almost completion where we would have centers in all major districts of Karachi to cater for the needs so we have secondary centers in all districts and a primary center here at our primary facility. Hopefully, In Sha Allah with the cooperation of all our worthy donors, we would be able to complete all these facilities and upgrade them in the future.
