education.

PHILOSOPHY

At Surgical Eye Care Foundation, we take pride in being a resource to our neighbors in the mid-south community.  We believe everyone deserves equal access to sight saving surgery regardless of income status.  Through education, volunteerism and community empowerment, we aim to revolutionize access to charitable surgical interventions one patient at a time.
