Mission of Sight

Mission of Sight Mission of Sight was created to assist the temporary physical needs and address the eternal Spiritual condition of those we serve.

Mission of Sight was formed in September 2004 as a compassionate ministry with the mission to share the Gospel through the gift of sight. This came to be through the lifetime work of Dr. Paul Gamertsfelder, the father of Work and Witness in the Church of the Nazarene. Dr. Paul, a retired optometrist, for many years traveled to the Caribbean regions to conduct eye clinics. Using his resources and G

od’s strength, Dr. Paul distributed thousands of pairs of glasses over the years, and through the help of volunteer Eye Care teams, restored sight to countless individuals. Because of the great need for health care in the Caribbean, a vision was cast for a multipurpose health clinic that would provide medical treatment, education, and training and would meet the needs of the whole person, body, mind, soul, and spirit. In March 2008, ground was broken for the Gamertsfelder Mission Centre in Frome, Jamaica. The building was constructed over a period of two years with the help of many Work and Witness teams and contractors. The first eye exam was conducted in the new GMC in November 2009, and the actual ribbon-cutting ceremony for the primary care wing was held on May 1, 2011.

This year, our Children’s Vision Clinic heads to Treasure Beach!

We’re bringing comprehensive eye care and the gift of clear vision to children in Southwest Jamaica!

In the midst of rebuilding, we’re reminded that caring for a child means caring for their whole future, and being able to see clearly is an important part of that future.

This October, we’re reaching out and doing more. More eye care. More hope. More possibilities.

JOIN US, as we care for Jamaica’s children!

Give. Share. Volunteer. Sponsor. Help us reach a child who needs to see clearly.

We see some pretty serious cataracts on a day to day basis. These are all cases where the patients were completely blind. Luckily, we are blessed with the best doctors including Dr. Khanna who is now a part of our national team, allowing us to continue our work even between visits from our teams in the States.

"Once Was Blind but Now I Can See"

Getting your sight back looks different for everybody, but when we ask our patients what they are looking forward to most with their restored sight, we often get the same answer: they can see their family again.

Their children, grandchildren, siblings or parents.

Some go years without seeing their family, or have grandchildren they've never seen.

When sight is restored, that reunion is special.

"THIS CAN'T BE REAL!"

The journey from the captivity of blindness to the recovery of sight may feel like an impossible one.

We often say that what we do is impossible without God.

He has given us the ability to help.

He has connected us with doctors, donors and volunteers who share our love for what we do.

He has brought patients to our doorstep.

He has blessed thousands with the recovery of sight.

A cataract surgery can restore more than sight. It restores independence, dignity, and livelihoods.

"That's not the windshield you want on your car"

This young lady came to us at only 30 years old with cataracts. She couldn't see for the last year, and taking a look at that cataract explains why.
