| Mission | THE HELPMESEE MISSION IS TO RESTORE SIGHT TO MILLIONS OF PEOPLE THROUGH HIGH-QUALITY MANUAL SMALL INCISION CATARACT SURGERIES (MSICS), IN PARTNERSHIP WITH A GLOBAL NETWORK OF CATARACT SURGICAL SPECIALISTS, OF WHOM, 30,000 WILL BE TRAINED USING A SIMULATOR-BASED PROGRAM. | MissionDesc |

| Desc | TRAINING CATARACT SPECIALISTS AND SUPPORTING PRACTICE READINESS: ELIMINATING CATARACT BLINDNESS THROUGH TRAINING OF CATARACT SPECIALISTS TO PROFICIENCY AND PRACTICE READINESS IS THE GUIDING PURPOSE OF HELPMESEE'S WORK. HELPMESEE QUALITY ASSURANCE SYSTEMS ARE DEVELOPED FOR PATIENT SAFETY AND BEST SURGICAL RESULTS. THE BROAD ELEMENTS OF QUALITY CONTROL IMPLEMENTATION COVER: (1) QUALITY OF SURGICAL SIMULATION, EQUIVALENT TO THE LEVEL "D" IN AVIATION, WHICH PROVIDES VIRTUALLY INDISTINGUISHABLE VISUAL AND TACTILE EXPERIENCE TO THE REAL EYE. WHEN OUR DEVELOPMENT OF OUR SIMULATION-BASED TRAINING SYSTEM IS COMPLETE, THIS WILL ELIMINATE THE NEED FOR 'LIVE TISSUE' TRAINING THAT ENDANGERS PATIENTS AND SURGICAL OUTCOMES. (2) OBJECTIVE ASSESSMENT OF PROFICIENCY AND CURRENCY OF SKILLS OF HELPMESEE SURGEONS. THIS IS DONE THROUGH CONTINUOUS SURGICAL PERFORMANCE REVIEWS AND SPECIALIZED TRAINING. (3) PRE-STERILIZED SINGLE USE SURGICAL KITS ALLOWING HIGH-QUALITY STANDARDIZATION THAT ARE AFFORDABLE AND DISTRIBUTED THROUGH A PREMEDITATED SUPPLY CHAIN. (4) PATIENT MANAGEMENT AND SURGICAL REPORTING SYSTEM, WHICH CAPTURES THE PRE, INTRA, AND POST-OPERATIVE RESULTS AND COMPLICATIONS OF EACH PATIENT AND SURGICAL PARTNER. HELPMESEE PRACTICES TOTAL QUALITY MANAGEMENT SOLUTIONS TO DELIVER HIGH VOLUME CATARACT SURGERIES AT THE MOST AFFORDABLE PRICE OF NOT MORE THAN $150 FOR EACH EYE. HELPMESEE PRACTICE READINESS SYSTEM ENGAGES CATARACT SPECIALISTS TO DELIVER QUALITY SURGERIES AT HIGH VOLUME IN THEIR GIVEN COMMUNITIES. WITH THIS, THE NUMBER OF SUCCESSFUL MANUAL SMALL INCISION CATARACT SURGERIES (MSICS) PERFORMED IS THE BASIC INDICATOR OF MISSION PROGRESS. IN THE REPORTING YEAR 2017 - THE ORGANIZATION'S 6TH YEAR OF MSICS OPERATIONS - HELPMESEE SUCCESSFULLY REACHED A TOTAL OF 301 SURGICAL PARTNERS WHO PERFORMED 11,789 CATARTACT SURGERIES. WITH THE INCREASING NUMBER OF SURGICAL PARTNERS AND THE EXPANDING CAMPAIGN NETWORK IN GEOGRAPHIC REGIONS AND COUNTRIES, HELPMESEE HAS THE CAPACITY TO RAPIDLY SCALE UP THE CATARACT SURGICAL OUTREACH. HELPMESEE TRACKS AND REPORTS 100% OF SURGERIES PERFORMED AND REVIEWS SURGICAL QUALITY OUTCOMES BY EACH SURGICAL PARTNER TO MONITOR SAFETY, EFFICIENCY AND TO INSTILL BEST PRACTICES. CRITICAL TO THE HELPMESEE CAMPAIGN IS THE SUCCESSFUL DEVELOPMENT AND DEPLOYMENT OF OUR SIMULATION-BASED TRAINING PROGRAM IN CATARACT SURGERY. THIS SIMULATOR IS DESIGNED TO COVER EVERY POSSIBLE VARIABLE AND COMPLICATION THAT COULD OCCUR DURING LIVE SURGERY. THE 360-DEGREE TRAINING MODULE AND INSTRUCITONAL COURSEWARE IS CURRENTLY BEING DEVELOPED WITH THE SURGICAL SIMULATOR'S VIRTUAL REALITY-BASED MODEL OF THE HUMAN EYE AS THE CENTERPIECE. | Desc |

| FORM 990, PART III, LINE 1 | IT IS ESTIMATED THAT THERE ARE AT LEAST 20 MILLION BLIND PEOPLE AND ANOTHER 82 MILLION VISUALLY IMPAIRED BY CATARACT. ALTHOUGH SIGHT CAN BE RESTORED BY A SHORT AND INEXPENSIVE SURGERY, THE PROCEDURE IS NOT AVAILABLE TO MANY BECAUSE OF THE SHORTAGE OF TRAINED CATARACT SPECIALISTS AVAILABLE TO SUPPORT TREATMENT LOCALLY. HELPMESEE IS A U.S. REGISTERED NOT-FOR-PROFIT CORPORATION ORGANIZED AND OPERATED EXCLUSIVELY FOR CHARITABLE AND TRAINING PURPOSES. HELPMESEE'S MISSION IS TO ELIMINATE CATARACT BLINDNESS IN THE DEVELOPING WORLD, WHICH IS THE LEADING CAUSE OF PREVENTABLE BLINDNESS WORLDWIDE. HELPMESEE PROVIDES TRAINING SOLUTIONS TO VASTLY INCREASE THE NUMBER OF QUALIFIED CATARACT SPECIALISTS TO ASSURE ACCESS TO TREATMENT THROUGHOUT THE DEVELOPING WORLD. HELPMESEE SEEKS TO ACHIEVE THIS BY DEVELOPING, STANDARDIZING AND DELIVERING QUALITY TRAINING IN MANUAL SMALL INCISION CATARACT SURGERY (MSICS), WHICH IS A QUICK, HIGH-QUALITY AND INEXPENSIVE PROCEDURE, IDEAL FOR USE IN THE DEVELOPING WORLD. MSICS TRAINING IS ACCOMPLISHED THROUGH DEVELOPMENT OF HIGH-FIDELITY SIMULATION-BASED TRAINING HARDWARE, SOFTWARE, AND COURSEWARE TO ENABLE REALISTIC AND IMMERSIVE TRAINING. AT THE CURRENT STAGE OF DEVELOPMENT, SIMULATOR HARDWARE, LEARNING SYSTEMS, AND ACCOMPANYING E-BOOK ARE READY FOR EXTENSIVE TESTING AND ADOPTION. THIS TRAINING PROGRAM IS ORGANIZED INTO MULTIPLE TRAINING MODULES FOR STUDENTS TO LEARN AND PRACTICE THE STEPS OF MSICS. THE FIRST OF THE FIVE MODULES, REPRESENTING THE MAJOR FOCUS OF TRAINING, IS NOW READY FOR EDUCATIONAL TESTING AND DEPLOYMENT, WHICH INCLUDES: A. FUNDAMENTALS OF OPHTHALMOLOGIC MICRO SURGERY B. THE TUNNEL INCISION, CONSTITUTING THE ESSENTIAL FIRST STEP FOR TRAINING MSICS SURGEONS C. INTERACTIVE E-BOOK CONTAINING THE ENTIRE MSICS PROCEDURE IN STEPS IN ADDITION, HELPMESEE HAS DEVELOPED INNOVATIVE SOLUTIONS TO SUPPORT PATIENT-CENTERED CARE IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES. HELPMESEE'S REACH APP ENABLES COMMUNITY HEALTH WORKERS TO CANVAS COMMUNITIES USING A SMARTPHONE TO IDENTIFY PROSPECTIVE PATIENTS AND REFER THEM TO LOCAL HOSPITALS TO RECEIVE TREATMENT, EVEN IN THE MOST RURAL REGIONS WHERE UNTREATED CATARACTS ARE OFTEN HIGHEST. USING GPS DATA, THIS CENSUS-BASED APPROACH ENABLES HELPMESEE TO ACCURATELY DEPLOY RESOURCES; FOR EXAMPLE, IN 5 DISTRICTS WITHIN INDIA WHERE HELPMESEE WAS ABLE TO ELIMINATE THE BACKLOG OF PATIENTS AWAITING CATARACT TREATMENT, DATA FROM HELPMESEE'S REACH APP FOUND THAT BLINDNESS WAS 33% HIGHER THAN PREVIOUSLY ESTIMATED. ONCE IDENTIFIED, PATIENT INFORMATION IS ENTERED INTO HELPMESEE'S CLOUD-BASED REPORTING SYSTEM, SO THAT HELPMESEE CAN MONITOR PATIENT RESULTS THROUGHOUT THE DELIVERY OF SIGHT-RESTORING CARE. AFTER A PATIENT ARRIVES AT THE HOSPITAL, THEIR VISION IS TESTED AND QUALIFIED PATIENTS CAN RECEIVE CATARACT TREATMENT USING HELPMESEE'S PRE-STERILIZED, SINGLE-USE SURGICAL KIT. THE KIT PROVIDES A SPECIALIST WITH ALL THE INSTRUMENTS NEEDED TO PERFORM STANDARDIZED MSICS PROCEDURE, REDUCING THE RISK OF INFECTION. EACH SINGLE-USE KIT CONSUMED IS THEN RECORDED TOGETHER WITH THE PATIENT DATA IN OUR CLOUD-BASED REPORTING SYSTEM TO ENSURE HIGH-QUALITY OUTCOMES FOR EVERY PATIENT. THANKS TO THE GENEROUS SUPPORT FROM OUR DONORS AND PARTNERS SUCH AS TRAFIGURA FOUNDATION,USAID, AND THE EYE SURGERY FUND, HELPMESEE HAS PROVIDED QUALITY TRAINING AND SUPPORT FOR DELIVERING CATARACT TREATMENT TO THOUSANDS OF PATIENTS AROUND THE WORLD. AS OF 2016, HELPMESEE IS WORKING WITH 293 PARTNER SURGEONS IN 11 DEVELOPING COUNTRIES. SINCE 2012, HELPMESEE HAS SUPPORTED OVER 256,000 SIGHT RESTORING SURGERIES, WITH PLANS TO BUILD ON THIS SUCCESS BY TRAINING CATARACT SPECIALISTS IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES ACROSS ASIA, AFRICA, AND LATIN AMERICA. |
