Where we work | Nigeria
Three decades of sight, and still growing.
From our first eye camp in 1994 to our newest hospital in Ibadan in 2025, Al Basar’s work in Nigeria keeps expanding. Permanent care, local surgeons, doors that stay open.
Our presence
Three hospitals. One promise.
Permanent eye hospitals mean care that outlasts any single campaign. Kano has anchored the work for more than twenty years. Ibadan is the newest hospital in our entire network.

Beyond the hospitals
Care that travels to every corner.
Hospitals anchor the work. Mobile clinics and classrooms extend it.

Since October 1994, mobile clinics have brought screening, surgery, and glasses to 28 Nigerian cities far from any hospital.
School screenings
