This is a lovely story (Coming back to life -- Vijaya Madhuri) ... I thought it was extraordinary the summer camps you run for visually impaired and blind kids. This is difficult to find in NA let alone India.

Thank you for your email and for sharing the exciting developments at LVPEI. I am sure you already know the huge admiration that I have for the work of your institute and I continue to appreciate the huge efforts made by you and your team in expanding the scope and scale of your activities. I am sure that the ceremony to mark the beginning of your new tertiary training centre was a wonderful occasion and shows that LVPEI continues to go from strength to strength. I found it of great interest that this venture has been funded solely by Sri Kode Satyanarayana. Individual philanthropy is a strong but often understated force behind science and medical activities, but this great gesture shows its fundamental importance. This act of generosity also affirms the outstanding reputation that LVPEI has established as being a valuable investment in Indian healthcare.

The new website is really excellent by the way. In reading it and the annual report I was again struck that LVP has become a very large, complex and sophisticated organization. It is hard to comprehend all the activities with the institute as a whole that comprise the work of LVP. I believe it truly is second to none anywhere.
I continue to be annoyed that LVP does not always get the international recognition it deserves — something I would like to discuss when I see you in New York. We are struggling with some of that ourselves. I also was curious if it would make sense to highlight how many non-cataract (complex) surgeries and services are provided at no
cost or a subsidized rate — I still think this is exceptional and not well understood.
Anyway congratulations to all your fine staff who are very clear about LVP's mission and deliver such extraordinary service across the entire institute.
