The New York-based charity has not only saved or dramatically improved the sight of thousands through surgery on the plane, but estimates it has also trained some 124,000 doctors, nurses and other health workers to perform the procedures themselves. The two-week stop in Danang this month was the flying hospital's first time in communist Vietnam.
