Lions World Vision Institute releases plans for Vision Health Center in Ybor

| Jo-Lynn Brown

The Lions World Vision Institute unveiled plans for a new Vision Health Center, in collaboration with the USF Health Eye Institute.

The new facility, located in Ybor City, is expected to open in 2026, and will serve as a hub for vision care and as a national model for how to facilitate research and provide better services to underserved communities.

The Vision Health Center will be located across from LWVI headquarters, in Ybor City. The three-story building will include two floors of parking and 20,000 square feet of clinical and community space.

In 2024, Lions and USF Health signed a new affiliation agreement, including collaborative research, treatment, screening, diagnostic and educational initiatives.
