Orbis's hardworking and dedicated team in Ethiopia currently runs our largest portfolio of comprehensive eye care programmes, including training, governance and health system strengthening in both urban hospitals and rural eye care clinics.
In those 20 years, the Flying Eye Hospital has visited Ethiopia four times to help raise awareness of Orbis's work and the need for investment in eye care.
The Flying Eye Hospital will visit again in October 2018 for a three-week training programme focused on World Sight Day, helping staff and partners shine a spotlight on Ethiopia and the problems that the local population face accessing eye care.
