Eye health and opportunity

Fundació Ramon Martí i Bonet is a private nonprofit working to improve eye health and future opportunities for children, young people, and adults experiencing vulnerability. It was founded in 2008 by Dr. Ramon Martí i Bonet, an ophthalmologist and founder of Institut Català de Retina, and has worked in this field for more than 15 years.

Areas of work

Ophthalmology projects

The foundation runs ophthalmology missions in Chad. In January 2026, its medical team traveled to N’Djamena and was hosted by Hôpital Le Bon Samaritain. During two weeks, they conducted eye exams for about 400 people and performed cataract surgery on 122 patients. In December 2025, the foundation also renewed an agreement with Barcelona City Council for “Visió per a Tothom,” a project supporting city residents with vision difficulties who are experiencing vulnerability.
