Since joining The Ohio State University, Dr. Tandon has participated
in surgery trips to Ethiopia, Ghana, Haiti, and most recently, Honduras. These trips involve other dedicated physicians and highlight the profound impact of global outreach. On the latest mission to Honduras, Dr. Tandon and a team of clinicians performed 35 cataract surgeries and conducted 98 eye
exams over five days.
The cataract patients were visually impaired and the surgeries restored their vision. These missions are possible thanks to generous supporters. Collaborations with colleagues, including Drs. Kristen Burwick, Mitul Vakharia, and Anupama Horne, further enrich these efforts. Dr. Tandon hopes to make Honduras a regular location for life changing work to restore sight and improve lives.
