Saving sight for more than 60 years.

Lions Gift of Sight helps restore sight through eye donation.

Lions Gift of Sight is a full-service eye bank that obtains, medically evaluates, and distributes donor eyes for cornea transplants, research, and education. By providing more than 1,000 corneas for transplant and 1,000 eyes for research every year, the eye bank helps ensure that as many people as possible receive the gift of sight.

Part of the Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Neurosciences, Lions Gift of Sight has restored sight for more than sixty years.
