About

The St John of Jerusalem Eye Hospital Group is the only charitable provider of eye care in Gaza, the West Bank and East Jerusalem, where rates of blindness are ten times higher than in the West. In 2010, we treated 102,382 patients - 34,238 under the age of 18. The original St John Eye Hospital was established in Jerusalem in 1882. Since then, we have opened satellite centres taking expert eye care to the people of Gaza, Hebron and Anabta, and initiated a Mobile Outreach Clinic taking vital services to those unable to travel easily. Training local Doctors and Nurses is also an essential objective. In training local people, we invest in the region and help to rebuild its fractured infrastructure. We treat patients regardless of ethnicity, religion or ability to pay.
