ORBIS
Orbis International is a non-profit organization committed to fighting preventable blindness and extending high-quality eye care to patients in some of the world’s most remote regions. It operates the Flying Eye Hospital, a DC-10 which is outfitted with a state-of-the-art treatment facility and staffed by volunteer surgeons and eye care professionals. OMEGA recently produced “Through Their Eyes”, a film with ORBIS International which documented actor and brand ambassador Daniel Craig’s visit to the Flying Eye Hospital in Ulan Bator, Mongolia.
