Nepal, home to around 30 million people, is dominated by the Himalayas, making it highly vulnerable to disasters such as earthquakes, landslides, and floods. Access to healthcare remains a challenge, particularly in rural and hilly areas, where high levels of visual impairment and blindness persist due to limited medical services.
