Vision Excellence Award 2020

The Vision Excellence Award 2020 from the International Agency for the Prevention of Blindness, 2020

Dr. Dan Kiage embodies the goals and aspirations of Vision 2020. Dan started Kisii Eye Hospital in his hometown of Kisii in rural southwest Kenya in 2013. He founded
the hospital as a social enterprise, focused on providing eye care
to all in need, and eliminating preventable blindness among a

target population of more than 5 million. In just a few years, the volume of surgery and the number of spectacles dispensed at Kisii Eye Hospital has increased exponentially and Dan’s team has been able to implement a cross-subsidization model that allows for those who can afford eye care services to subsidize the care of a majority of patients who incur little or no out of pocket cost. https://www.iapb.org/connect/members/vision-excellence-awards/ vision-excellence-awards-daniel-kiage/
