Description:
Eyes2Eyes is a registered non profit working to prevent blindness. Our mission is to assist young public health patients with preventable corneal blindness, with life changing sight restoration. Patients are referred to us from the Groote Schuur Hospital Cornea Clinic, the George Hospital and the Discount Vision Clinic in Port Elizabeth. We fund highly technical lenses to treat advanced cases of keratoconus. Public hospitals do not fund these lenses. Without our help, these patients are sent home to live a life with unnecessary blindness. Keratoconus starts in the teenage years. It's critical to treat these patients before their education, mental health & personal development is impacted.
