In January 2011, Dr D’Aversa will leave for Ghana with his daughter Jaclyn D’Aversa, a sophomore at Barnard College. Dr. D’Aversa and Jaclyn will work with an eye clinic in Ghana to screen for eye disease, implement education programs, and coordinate sight-restoring surgery for children and adults. Unite for Sight has sponsored over 30,000 sight restoring surgeries since its inception in 2000.
