An inspiring patient impact story was featured by the International Agency for the Prevention of Blindness (IAPB) as part of its Vision Save Stories. This was facilitated by Aurolab’s International NGO and Promotion Team.

Eight-year-old Semira Jemal from Ethiopia, who had been living with bilateral cataracts and could only see “grey smudges,” regained her sight through a surgical outreach initiative conducted by the Cure Blindness Project at Boru Meda General Hospital. With the implantation of Aurolab’s high-quality, affordable intraocular lenses (IOLs), her vision was fully restored, enabling her to return to school with confidence and hope.

Aurolab organised a Bird Watching Event at its “Aurofarm” an organic farm, to fosters biodiversity awareness, encourages conservation of the green campus, reduces stress, and promotes health and teamwork among employees. Home to over 7,300 trees and more than 52 bird species, the campus has become a renowned birding spot in the Madurai and Sivaganga districts.

Jointly coordinated by the TPM – Safety, Health, Environment (SHE) Pillar and the Auronature Club, the event drew 57 employees and their school-going children for a 2 km walk from 6:15 a.m. to 8:15 a.m. Guided by Dr. Haemoglobin, Medical Consultant, Retina-Vitreous Services, Aravind-Madurai, a renowned bird enthusiast and photographer, participants identified 23 bird species, including the Asian Koel, Indian Roller, Peafowl, White-throated Kingfisher, and Woodpecker. The sightings were formally recorded on the international birding platform eBird, contributing to global bird census data. Beyond its recreational value, the initiative aligned with Aurolab’s environmental and wellness goals under the TPM SHE Pillar. Following the enthusiastic response, there are plans to conduct this event once every three months.
