Today, we laid down the foundation stone of the new hospital building that is scheduled to come up in the next couple of years. This centre will evolve into a tertiary care ophthalmic setup, completely developed in all sub-specialities, that will cater, annually, to nearly 2,00,000 patients. Over the next decade, AEC will develop into an institution spread across the entire state of Uttarakhand with nearly 30 primary and 3 secondary care centres.

We hope to make a significant contribution in the field of healthcare – to our country which, at present, is home to nearly a fifth of the global number of blinds.
