Ophthalmology Hospital in Damanhur, Al Beheira – 1914

This title refers to the Ophthalmology (Eye) Hospital in the city of Damanhur, located in Al Beheira Governorate, in 1914, during the reign of Khedive Abbas Helmy II (1892–1914).

This period marked a significant expansion of modern medical services in Egypt, particularly in ophthalmology, due to the widespread prevalence of eye diseases such as trachoma in the Nile Delta region.

The Damanhur Eye Hospital served as a regional medical center for the city and surrounding villages, reflecting the early governmental efforts to extend specialized healthcare beyond major urban centers.
