Welcome to DMMM Vision Center, Ahiaeke

Your Golden Age is Made Till the end, keep a good memory

DMMM Vision Centre is a specialist eye hospital owned and managed by the Congregation of the Daughters of Mary Mother of Mercy (DMMM). The centre was officially opened on 1st February 2019 with a community outreach that offered free eye screening and surgeries to the public. Since then, we have grown into a trusted hub for quality eye care, recording over 2,000 successful surgeries and serving thousands of patients from Umuahia and beyond.

We are known not only for our medical expertise but also for our affordable services and compassionate care, which our patients continue to testify about with gratitude and trust. The vision centre has its roots in DMMM St. Joseph’s Eye Hospital, Mgbirichi, from where the mission of restoring sight and preventing avoidable blindness was first nurtured.

Together with our team of doctors, nurses, and staff, we remain committed to excellence, integrity, and compassion in every aspect of patient care. At DMMM Vision Centre, our goal is to give every individual the chance to enjoy clearer, healthier vision and a better quality of life.
Our dedicated management team includes:

  • Rev. Sr. Mary Vianney Ajaelu – Administrator

  • Rev. Sr. Dr. Christiana Ubaka – Medical Director and Consultant Ophthalmologist

  • Dr. Francis Chidozie Osuagwu – Head of Department, Optometry
