Two optometrists are needed to join a team of 12 medical professionals in providing care for 12 days while trekking 26 days through the remote Himalaya in Nepal. The Tsum Valley is home to 3500 Tibetan Buddhists who have received little eye care due to remoteness of their location. The two earthquakes in spring of 2015 profoundly impacted the people of the Tsum who are described by Westerners as gracious and grateful.
