Rayner Donates Lenses to a Recent Mission Trip to India.
Rayner recently supported a successful mission trip to India by donating IOLs to ICARE - a hospital dedicated to providing charitable eye-care. Through working with the Rayner’s local distributor in India - and 4 generous US-based surgeons – the company was able to help restore the gift of sight to those in great need.

Rayner proudly announced today that the registration of both the Sulcoflex Toric IOL and T-flex Aspheric Toric IOL system packs has been approved by the Korean Food and Drugs Administration (KFDA) and are now available for sale in the Republic of Korea.

‘Good news, good news, good news! IMPACT’s Jibon Tari Floating Hospital has moored here in Kaliganj!’

A young man rides a bike around a village making this announcement from his megaphone. This marks the beginning of a powerful news story.

IMPACT Bangladesh - a charitable foundation which aims to prevent and treat avoidable disability - features in Al Jazeera's world health programme 'The Cure' as part of a report on one of their biggest projects - The Jibon Tari or 'Floating Hospital'. 

After enduring a decade of poor vision, 109-year-old Guo Liansheng has been given back the gift of sight by UK intraocular lens (IOL) experts, Rayner.

Before implantation of a Rayner IOL, Madam Guo struggled to detect even the vaguest light changes. Afterwards, she was able to look into her eight-month-old great-great-granddaughter’s eyes for the first time.

Hove-based Rayner Intraocular Lenses Ltd have pledged a regular donation of IOLs every month to Sussex-based IMPACT Foundation, enabling the foundation to restore the vision of cataract sufferers in Bangladesh – improving the patients’ quality of life, preventing disability and promoting independent, sustainable living.

On Wednesday 6th May 2009, Rayner Intraocular Lenses Ltd donated 1,000 intraocular lenses to the Bureau for the Prevention of Blindness in South Africa. Rayner’s South African distributor, Surgical & Ophthalmic Supplies Pty, had the honour of officially presenting the lenses to Dr Paul Davis, Chairman of the bureau.
