Established in 1997, the Lions SightFirst Eye Hospital (LSEH)stands as a beacon of hope and health in Africa, with a primary mission to promote eye health and offer comprehensive eye education to all, regardless of socio-economic backgrounds. Beyond clinical excellence, their broader goal encompasses eye education initiatives, rehabilitation, sight enhancement services, and a robust rural community outreach program ensuring quality eye care reaches even the most remote corners of the continent.
As a local organization, LSEH operates as a top-tier eye care institution, embodying excellence and commitment. Their dedication to eye health shines through in their clinical services, and their efforts are further amplified with an active eye bank. With roots deeply embedded since 1997, LSEH has continually expanded its scope, emerging as a benchmark in eye care, education, and rural community outreach across Africa. The Health Yetu Foundation funds and co-organizes surgical eye-camps with LIONS SightFirst Eye Hospital in rural/remote areas in Kenya.
