Reconstructive surgery

Reconstructive surgery transforms lives for people affected by leprosy, restoring the use of their hands, feet, and eyes that are often damaged due to the disease. At TLMTI, we perform over 1,000 such surgeries annually, providing individuals with the opportunity to regain mobility, dignity, and independence. Each surgery costs approximately ₹40,943, covering specialised surgeons, hospital care, and rehabilitation. We invite corporate partners to support this critical intervention through CSR funding. Your contribution powers life-changing surgeries, directly improves quality of life for society’s marginalised, and demonstrates your commitment to impactful, inclusive social responsibility. Together, we can rebuild lives.

Ulcer care

Ulcer care is a vital service for people affected by leprosy, addressing chronic wounds that can lead to severe complications if untreated. At TLMTI, we provide hospital care for over 2,500 ulcers annually, with patients typically requiring up to a month of treatment to heal effectively. Each case costs approximately ₹40,450, covering specialised medical care, hospitalisation, and rehabilitation.

Your partnership can make a meaningful difference by supporting sustained healing and reducing long-term disability among marginalised communities affected by leprosy.

Neuritis and Reactions

Neuritis and reactions in leprosy are serious complications causing nerve pain, inflammation, and potential loss of sensation or function. At TLMTI, we treat over 1,800 patients annually requiring specialized hospital care to manage these conditions effectively. Each treatment episode, including up to a month of hospitalization, costs approximately ₹24,750.

Your partnership through CSR funding will directly improve lives of vulnerable communities affected by leprosy, demonstrating a strong commitment to compassionate and impactful social responsibility. Together, we can restore hope and mobility.

Protective footwear is essential for people affected by leprosy, helping prevent injuries and ulcers caused by loss of sensation in feet. At TLMTI, we distribute over 18,000 pairs annually, providing durable, specially designed shoes that protect and promote mobility. Each pair cost approximately 500, covering design, materials, and fitting. We seek CSR support to scale this impactful intervention, which reduces disability and enhances quality of life for vulnerable communities.
