The world's most popular YouTuber has responded to criticism over him funding life-changing operations.

MrBeast, who has 131 million subscribers and recently became the world's most popular YouTuber, initially said he did not expect so many people to view the video.

"Why would anybody criticise this work and raising awareness of it through film and social media channels?" "Eye health is often a forgotten topic when it comes to global health conversations, but eye health equals opportunity, allowing children to learn and adults to earn," they added.One Twitter user notes "the fact it took charity for these people to get help highlights the problem".

Dr Jeff Levinson, the surgeon who worked on behalf of the social media star, says in the video "half of all the blindness in the world is people who need a 10 minute surgery".In 2021, he launched a separate philanthropy-themed YouTube channel, which itself has more than 10 million subscribers, and he has a licensed charity that functions as a food bank to feed communities across the US.
