Retinoblastoma is a rare type of eye cancer that affects children, usually below the age of five. Approximately one child in every 15,000 is affected by this cancer.

Proclaiming the collaboration of Narayana Netralaya and Toronto-based Hospital for Sick Children, SickKids India is moving leaps and bounds for child care. The objective is to diagnose, cure and check the capacity for genetic analysis and help in predicting chances of other members of the family being affected by retinoblastoma.

A very noble act was exhibited when it was heralded that no poor shall be turned back for Retinoblastoma. As it seems that Narayana Netralaya works in the direction in helping the lower income families, which itself is a cheering act.

It sets an example for the other "branded hospitals and medical care" in the area of social responsibility. Narayana health city not only captures the hearts of its well-wishers but also seeks a position in the country as 'The Affordable Medical Care Unit' for this rare disease.
