Our story
In 1981, three Sydney ophthalmologists Professor Francis (Frank) Alfred Billson AO (pictured), Dr Frank Lane Ritchie CBE, and Dr John Wallis (Jack) Hornbrook had a vision to improve eye health services in the city they called home.
This vision gave rise to the creation of the Sydney Eye Hospital Foundation and collaboration among doctors, nurses, volunteers, patients and philanthropists. By working together with our community, the Foundation continues to thrive and expand, driving excellence in eye care for all.
