ERC-eye care center

India

ERC aims to provide inclusive, affordable, service-oriented, yet sustainable eye care to the Bottom of the Pyramid (BoP) and marginalized populations.

Proof of Concept

1 - 6 months

OverviewContributors

Challenge

Many marginalized rural populations have to travel long distances to access costly eye care in towns and cities. ERC covers around 25% of the target market in Jorhat with seven centers targeting 30,000 people per cluster.

Description

We propose to expand across the region in the hub-spoke model to make eye care accessible to marginalized rural populations.
