To provide affordable, accessible eye care to combat the totally unnecessary rate of blindness in a very poor rural area.

More information

 

The Centre was founded 1993 by a UK trained ophthalmologist now resident in Kenya. There are many cases of child and youth blindness, mainly preventable and symptomatic of poor diet and parental ignorance. The most common cause of blindness is cataract, for which treatment is by phacoemulsification surgery and the insertion of intraocular lenses. The clinic is an official training centre for the University of Nairobi, Department of Ophthalmology.
