Nepal is home to a series of 8,000-meter peaks, including the world's
highest, 8848-meter Mount Everest (Sagarmatha). About 80% of thecountry's land area is covered by mountains and hills. In many such
mountainous areas, there are no doctors available; and in a case ofemergency, the only option is to call an ambulance, which can take up toseveral hours to arrive.
OUI Inc. has been working with a local partner, the BM Foundation, for
two years on a pilot demonstration using the Smart Eye Camera. Now, withthe aim of further propagating the collaboration, OUI Inc. will join BM
Foundation in many joint ventures. The SEC screening in schools fromrecently was one of them!
First, Dr. Rohan of OUI Inc. visited Nepal from June 21 to 23 to conduct
screenings using the Smart Eye Camera at three schools in the town ofChapakot, a 6 to 11 hour drive, depending on traffic, or a 25-minute flightfrom the capital city of Kathmandu. The schools enroll many children from 4to 16 years old. Since Nepal's second language is Hindi and Dr. Rohan, who
has roots in India, can speak Hindi, he was able to communicate smoothlywith the children and screen at a rate of over 100 children per hour.
From July 2 to 5, Shintaro Nakayama, COO of OUI Inc. also visited Nepal,
where with the support of the BM Foundation, he met with local medical
equipment companies and exchanged views on the future direction ofcollaboration with the BM Foundation. We also visited an elementary school
and a junior high school located 10 km north of Kathmandu by car andconducted screenings using the Smart Eye Camera. Dr. Buddhi, arepresentative of the BM Foundation, gave us a letter of appreciation. The
team used the time outside of screening to visit the ophthalmology
department at Teaching Hospital, the largest hospital in Nepal, and decided
to discuss the possibility of collaboration in the future through joint
research projects using the SEC and eye camps.
Through this visit to Nepal, we were able to show the potential of theSmart Eye Camera to many people in Nepal! OUI Inc. will continue to workwith local ophthalmologists and medical professionals to take on thechallenge of overcoming preventable blindness and visual impairment inNepal and beyond!
