The Dr. Nihar Munsi Eye Foundation was established in 1993 as a living memorial to the late Dr. Nihar Kumar Munsi (1903-1989), a renowned eye surgeon who became well-known during his lifetime. Over the past 30 years, the Foundation has earned a stellar reputation as a specialized daycare center for its top-notch eye treatment and surgery facilities for the community at reasonable prices.

Dr. Nihar Munsi Eye Foundation celebrated its 30^th anniversary with the inauguration of its Pediatric Ophthalmology Division and Vision Therapy Divisions and the launch of its new website www.nmeyefoundation.org. This was organized in the august presence of Shri Debashis Kumar, MLA, and Shri Sourav Basu, Councillor, Ward No. 86 Kolkata Municipal Corporation.

After the Managing Trustee, Shri Shayan Munshi, gave a speech to welcome everyone, there was a scientific panel discussion led by the Foundation’s Medical Superintendent and the heads of its various divisions. Ophthalmologists, fellow Foundation-empanelled doctors, general practitioners, cardiologists, diabetics, pediatricians, and other medical professionals from various fields attended. A question-and-answer round followed the discussion.

The Foundation with the launch of these two new divisions and the website will be able to cater to more patients.
