Overview

Over the past 2 decades, Peru has seen a rapid reduction of poverty due to GDP growth, rising incomes, robust tourism, low inflation, and greater economic opportunities. On the other hand, levels of inequality increased during this period, and up to 7 million Peruvians live in extreme poverty in slums and rural areas. This vulnerable population has scant access to healthcare, a problem which is amplified for indigenous people that make up a 45% of Peru’s population.

The Ministry of Health together with Ministry of Education, Ministry of Development and Social Inclusion, NGOs and private providers support eye care services in the country, including programs in schools. There have also been several studies highlighting the issue of uncorrected refractive errors in Peru; one such study (Apurimac region, 2016) focused on school-aged children in urban areas, it was shown that 10% of school-aged children required prescription eyeglasses. Unfortunately, 44% of families were unable to afford the glasses without a full subsidy, and another 20% needed a partial subsidy to buy them.

DOT Glasses Peru wants to ensure glasses are accessible and affordable for even the most underprivileged segments of society.

Descripción General

Durante las 2 últimas décadas, Perú ha experimentado una rápida reducción de la pobreza debido al crecimiento del PBI, el aumento de los ingresos, el turismo robusto, la baja inflación y mayores oportunidades económicas. Por otro lado, los niveles de desigualdad aumentaron durante este período, y hasta 7 millones de peruanos viven en pobreza extrema en barrios marginales y áreas rurales. Esta población vulnerable tiene escaso acceso a la atención médica, problema que se amplifica para los pueblos indígenas que conforman un 45% de la población peruana.

El Ministerio de Salud, junto con el Ministerio de Educación, el Ministerio de Desarrollo e Inclusión Social, ONG y proveedores privados apoyan los servicios de atención oftalmológica en el país, incluidos los programas en las escuelas. También se han realizado varios estudios que destacan el problema de los errores de refracción no corregidos en Perú; En uno de esos estudios (región Apurímac, 2016) centrado en niños en edad escolar en áreas urbanas, se demostró que el 10% de los niños en edad escolar requerían anteojos recetados. Desafortunadamente, el 44% de las familias no podían pagar los anteojos sin un subsidio completo y otro 20% necesitaba un subsidio parcial para comprarlos.

DOT Glasses Perú quiere garantizar lentes accesibles y asequibles incluso para los segmentos más desfavorecidos de la sociedad.
