The Mission of Central Ohio Lions Eye Bank: To restore, improve, and preserve vision by connecting eye donors and transplant recipients, educating health care professionals, and enhancing research through quality eye banking services. The Mission of the Central Ohio Lions Eye Bank:
To restore, improve, and preserve vision by connecting eye donors and transplant recipients, educating physicians,
and enhancing research through quality eye banking services. The goal of advancing eye care through research and medical education is also addressed in eye research labs and through residency training for physicians who will become eye care specialists. Lions Clubs throughout central and southeastern Ohio contribute to the Eye Bank in many ways: by raising and donating funds; by volunteering and by helping to make the public aware of the need for cornea donations. For more information, visit DonateMyEyes.org and click on Lions Support. Friends of the Eye Bank provide voluntary professional services, financial contributions, communications, and support to the organization. They are corneal transplant recipients, donor families, eye care physicians, public servants, local news media, funeral home staff, and many others touched by the Eye Donor Program. Thanks to these friends, the Gift of Sight can become a reality for those who depend on the efforts of the Eye Bank for restored vision.
