CEM at Work

For the past 37 years CEM has worked diligently to improve eye care in Ghana and Honduras. In addition to basic eye services and training of healthcare professionals, CEM also conducts research projects focused on common eye diseases in these populations. Our volunteer doctors were the first to perform cataract surgery with intraocular lenses, glaucoma surgery with antimetabolites, and glaucoma drainage implant surgery in Ghana.

Saving Sight

Make a difference - help restore the vision of a person around the world. Here are some examples of what a small donation can do:

• $100 will sponsor 1 cataract operation

• $200 will sponsor cataract operation on both eyes

• $500 will provide a cataract surgery instrument set
