The Lions Eye Bank of Delaware Valley has provided sight to nearly 20,000 individuals since its inception in 1957. From the beginning, the Eye Bank has been supported by the Lions Clubs of Delaware, New Jersey and southeast Pennsylvania. Without your continued support we could not provide the “Gift of Sight.”
