Our Purpose

We are dedicated to supporting the poor and needy across India by offering services in vision care, preventive healthcare, nutrition, and education.

Our goal is to empower individuals to lead safe, secure, and healthy lives, while promoting public awareness and wellness at the grassroots level.

Empowering Futures: Our Legacy

Retain Smilez is a unit of the Dr. Kishore Bohra Eye Charitable Trust, founded in memory of Late Dr. T. Kishore Kumar Bohra. Established in 1997, the organization has spent over 28 years building a strong reputation as a trusted name in healthcare, education, and public awareness.

Our journey began with a deep commitment to serving the poor and underserved and has evolved into a sustainable, community-rooted movement.

Our Mission & Vision 

We partner with governments, NGOs, and the private sector to deliver replicable, scalable models of community welfare.

Our mission is to develop self-sustaining programs that restore and preserve sight, while inspiring volunteers and donors to join us in transforming lives and strengthening our nation through compassion, equity, and collective action.
