Eye on the World

To honor Bascom Palmer’s global impact, the Institute was thrilled to host its fourth annual Evening of Vision Gala, “Eye on the World.” Since opening its doors in 1962, members of Bascom Palmer’s faculty have been sharing clinical and research expertise with ophthalmologists throughout the world. As physicians graduate from its global fellowship and residency pro-grams, the web of ophthalmologists trained at Bascom Palmer strengthens and grows, adding to the network of ophthalmologists with whom we work. This translates to better care for our patients at home or abroad.

The gala was a great success thanks to the generous support of the Naples community. The highlight of the evening was the announcement that the E.D.S. Family Pediatric Program became the first million-dollar pillar program named at Bascom Palmer Naples.

Thank you, Naples. for supporting the Bascom Palmer Eye Institute. While Bascom Palmer is proud to tackle the world’s most challenging eye diseases, we are proud to call Naples our home.The next event in Naples will be the 20/20 Vision Luncheon, featuring Isaac Lidsky as the guest
