Kief Davidson, nominated for a Short Subject Documentary Oscar in 2013 for Open Heart, directed this docu short, Saving Sight, which explores how Toyota’s operational production system has helped Harbor-UCLA hospital in Torrance, Calif., become more efficient, enabling under-served patients to gain treatment in a timely manner. Prior to implementing the Toyota system, patients in the eye clinic were going blind waiting for medical services.
We see the improvement through the failing eyes of Liseth, a diabetic patient hoping to fully regain her sight.
Sloane Klevin of Union Editorial edited Saving Sight.
