Restore Sight. Restore Dignity. Restore Life.

In Pakistan, blindness is often not caused by incurable disease, it is caused by lack of access. Treatments exist, doctors exist, and hospitals exist, yet for millions of families they remain beyond reach. A simple cataract surgery can restore sight within minutes, but many people live in darkness for years because they cannot afford transport to a city, diagnostic tests, or the repeated visits required for treatment and recovery. What is medically small becomes financially impossible. For them, blindness is not a health condition, it is a poverty condition.

The consequences reach far beyond the patient. A parent who loses vision can no longer work. A child may leave school to guide them. Daily income stops, dependence begins, and entire families become trapped in hardship, all from a problem that could have been treated early.

To change this reality, Al Mustafa Welfare Trust is establishing the Al Mustafa Eye Hospital, Islamabad, a place where treatment is not determined by wealth but by need, and where the ability to see is restored with dignity rather than delayed by circumstance.

A Hospital Where Everyone Receives the Same Care

This hospital will provide advanced eye care alongside completely free treatment for underprivileged patients. Those who can afford services will help sustain the hospital, while those who cannot will receive the same quality treatment free of charge. There will be no separate standards of care, only dignity for every patient.

Located in Bahria Enclave, the hospital will serve low-income communities across Islamabad, nearby rural villages, and surrounding regions including Azad Kashmir, giving families a permanent place they can return to whenever they need care.

Why This Hospital Is Needed

Preventable blindness continues to grow across Pakistan because specialist services are expensive, public hospitals are overcrowded, and patients cannot travel repeatedly for appointments. As a result, conditions worsen before treatment ever begins.

Eye camps have restored sight to many, but chronic eye disease requires continuity. This hospital ensures patients no longer have to wait for temporary medical camps, they will have a permanent centre dedicated to protecting their vision.
