In Vietnam, Orbis works closely with local partners across the country to build strong and sustainable eye care systems that put treatment and prevention within reach, making sure everyone across the country can access the eye care they need to thrive.
Where we work
Orbis began working in Vietnam in 1996, providing ophthalmic training in local hospitals in collaboration with the Vietnam National Institute of Ophthalmology. In 2003, an Orbis representative office was set up in Hanoi following the launch of several long-term projects and the establishment of the country's first eye bank.
