Created in 2011 as a for-profit enterprise with the mission of giving all Mexicans the possibility to see well to transform their life, salauno's model is based on operating efficiencies that enable high patient volumes that are serviced with unique patient journeys to provide everyone with superior access to quality eye care. salauno has established a hub and spoke system of 13 clinics attending over 20,000 patients per month, 80% paying for treatments out of pocket, the rest highly subsidized or free. salauno aspires to venture into other specialities that can be operated with efficiency at low cost.
