The Hope Lions Club recently heard from Jeff Brown of the Arkansas Lions Eye Bank and Laboratory.   He talked about what can be done with eyes that are donated after death.

Established in 1986, the Arkansas Lions Eye Bank and Laboratory at UAMS has since grown to one of the best in the country.

The eye bank serves the entire state of Arkansas and has been heavily supported by the Lions Clubs of Arkansas since its humble beginning.

The support generated by the Arkansas Lions includes the procurement of eye examination equipment, funding a cutting-edge research project, and providing funds for eye bank personnel to attend health fairs and other related events to enhance community awareness of the need for eye donation.
