No. of Paragraph 15

The Ophthalmological Society of Nigeria (OSN) has expressed worry that millions of Nigeria, especially those living in rural communities do not have access to eyecare services. 

President of the Society, Dr. Abiola Oyeleye made this known on Friday, during the opening ceremony of the 49th Annual General Meeting and 48th Scientific Conference of the society with the theme: The Evolving Face of Ophthalmology.

In his address, Oyeleye said that it was worrying that Nigeria, with a population of over 200 million people only has over 700 Ophthalmologists attending to the eyecare needs of the citizens. 

“Most of these Ophthalmologists work in the cities, as a result, the rural population, who have eyecare needs are not able to access care” she said.
