The Ophthalmology Foundation of Santander started in 1976 on the 11th floor of the Ramon Gonzalez Valencia University Hospital. Later, in 1979 it was moved to an old house where an excellent group of professionals and paramedicals committed to the philosophy of “Helping Others to See” provided ophthalmological attention for over two years, beginning a long standing tradition of community service.
