Dr. Sanduk Ruit, a Nepali ophthalmologist, may well be the world champion in the war on blindness. In a country where being blind means an uncertain future, Dr. Ruit has given new hope to the visually-impaired from the small landlocked country in South Asia, and even beyond.
By pioneering a simple cataract microsurgery technique that is highly successful, Dr. Ruit has been able to restore the vision of countless individuals. Not only is his method being taught in medical schools in the United States, but he is also training doctors from around the world.
Apart from profiling Dr. Ruit and his work at his Tilganga Institute of Ophthalmology in Kathmandu, the story also outlines two remarkable stories: the journey of an elderly patient, whose vision has been restored; and the extraordinary transformation of a 13-year-old Nepalese boy who was born blind, and with the help of Dr. Ruit was able to see for the very first time.
