Iris Asia : About Us
BACKGROUND TO IRIS
IRIS was
established in 1996, by Michele Claudel and John Stewart,
primarily in response to eye care needs identified amongst
the poorest of the poor in Cambodia. Since then, support
has been extended to eye care development programs in Nepal
and Lao PDR and more recently Sri Lanka.
Serving
as trustees of IRIS are two highly experienced Consultant
Ophthalmologists who advise on all medical matters and who
have themselves made significant personal contributions
to the improvement of eye care services in developing countries.

IRIS supports eye care development programmes in:
Cambodia:
Where IRIS funds the work of eye clinics in 5 provinces,
stages regular eye camps in all provinces
that remain without eye care facilities and provide eye
screening, refraction and surgery for cyclo
drivers of Phnom Penh and supports the National Plan for
Eye Health.
Sri Lanka:
Where IRIS equips new eye clinics and strengthens existing
ones, conducts eye screening and refraction and provides
cataract surgery for poor people, provides primary eye care
training for staff working

on tea plantations and supports
the National Eye Care Plan of the Ministry of Health.
Nepal:
Where IRIS supports cataract and other surgeries carried
out by the IRIS-Nepal Micro Surgical Mobile Eye Camp Project
in remote, rural areas of the country.

FINANCE
Future sustainability
of IRIS development programs depends on our being able to
attract new sources of funds, as well as maintaining on-going
financial support from those individuals, foundations and
grant-making organizations that have so generously supported
IRIS in the past.
To achieve
all targets set for our country programs between 2009 and
2012, IRIS needs to generate US$2 million in donor support.
Doing
so will enable new eye clinics in remote, rural areas to
be established and equipped and approx. 15,000 people, who
are amongst the poorest of the poor, to have their sight
restored by surgery or to access refraction services, free-of-charge.
IRIS
trustees oversee and approve all financial transactions
and receive detailed monthly financial reports from the
Field Director. IRIS operates a robust financial management
system that requires receipts to support all income and
expenditure transactions. An annual audit report for each
country program is produced by an independent firm of auditors.
