In us for over

19+ Years

Right to Sight and Health is working on establishing a private, non-profit, sustainable eye care network in North Ghana that provides treatment to everyone in need, regardless of their ability to pay. It is called the Northern Community Eye Network. It already established the Tamale Eye Hospital (TEH), formerly known as Northern Community Eye Hospital in 2020, and opened the Vittin Vision Center in 2024.

It is based on the ARAVIND MODEL from India which has brought free and low-cost eye care to millions of people around the world since the 1990s.

The Hospital and Vision Center operate as a “SOCIAL BUSINESS”, which has been defined as a business whose primary aim is to address a social problem, and which is financially self-sufficient and does not pay dividends to its owners.

our approach

What sets the NCEN apart from other eye hospitals in Africa is it’s founder and medical director, Dr Judith Simon. She is a US trained ophthalmologist,who has been working in Tamale, North Ghana since 2013. Last year she became a citizen of Ghana. She has committed to spending the rest of her life working in Ghana to restore and improve vision for thousands of people living in remote areas of the country who would never have had access to such advanced care.
