ABSTRACT

The Miracle Mission, created as a solidarity campaign in the ophthalmologic field for all the Caribbean and Latin American countries, has emerged at the Cuban initiative and the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela supported it. After a decade of its foundation, its achievements and importance are analyzed and its influence in the visual health of the Honduran people was also highlighted. Many benefits have been obtained from this project of social impact such as prevention and treatment of the main causes of blindness, as well as facilitating the social reincorporation of patients after treatment. This project has shown great acceptance by the people and the enrichment of the Cuban medical mission not only in the scientific-intellectual field but also in the humanitarian field.
