Cataract eye surgery for needy seniors in India, takes their sight away...http://www.buzzfeed.com/jasonwells/at-least-24-patients-in-india-go-blind-after-free-eye-surger

The surgeries were performed in early November on 130 patients in northern India who were all older than 50.

Those who didn’t go blind have reported infections and some are being treated by doctors at a hospital in Amritsar on Friday.
