Clip: 7/9/2015 | 8m 2s
Doctors travel by plane to developing nations to perform eye surgery and to teach others.
Started in 1982, Orbis International's flying eye hospital is a fully equipped, state-of-the-art hospital built inside a former military airplane. Its staff is made up of volunteer surgeons, nurses, and pilots, and together they fly to developing nations to perform low-cost eye surgeries, but just as importantly, to teach local doctors how to do the same.
