Supporting the underserved

One of our key missions is to ensure that advances in research and care are available to anyone struggling with a complex ophthalmic condition.

Bascom Palmer Eye Institute attracts a diverse range of patients locally and from around the world. An endowment to meet the needs of underserved communities in our region will ensure that we are able to impact every segment of our community. From local programs like “Feel the Art Balkan,” a collaboration with the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts of Miami-Dade County, to a recent volunteer effort with ORBIS Flying Eye Hospital to train physicians in Ghana, bringing our talents to the underserved is a core part of our mission.
