. To establish a well equipped facility that provides vision screenings to check for cataracts, glaucoma, refractive errors, and other eye problems and diseases, and to provide medical treatments and dispense eyeglasses.

VVC History

Kwame Amanfoh and his wife, Margaret Amanfoh are natives of Ghana and founders of VVC. After graduating from the Ophthalmic Medical Program at Georgetown University, Kwame realized that the magnitude of the blindness problem in Ghana was overwhelming, and the need was huge for all the communities. In Africa, particularly Ghana, we don’t have enough eye doctors. Only about one in 10 people who are blinded by cataract ever receive surgery. Also millions of Ghanaians are blind or in danger of becoming blind if existing knowledge and treatment do not reach them in time.To fulfill this mission, VVC works closely with the local Ghanaian eye doctors. VVC has established vision screening center in the Brong Ahafo Region where it provides eye exams and dispenses eyeglasses. Thanks to the commitment and involvement of many volunteers, VVC continues to provide quality eye care services to people living in the Ghana’s most rural areas. VVC aims to have their services available to other regions in the near future.
