Volunteer Opportunities
Our Vision

The mission of the Lions Eye Institute Foundation is to support sight-related outreach, education, treatment and research. First and foremost, our goal is to assure that any person who needs sight-saving/sight-restoring surgery will have access to that care, regardless of their ability to pay. Equally, we fund programs that will enrich the quality of life for people who are blind or visually impaired (VI)
