Dr. Oketta Obiageli – Cypress Eye Centre (Nigeria)
Dr. Obiageli Oketta, founder of Cypress Eye Centre in Nigeria, is a licensed optometrist with a distinguished background in clinical practice, academia, and public health. Driven by a lifelong passion for healthcare and community service, she has dedicated her career to delivering quality eye care, mentoring the next generation of optometrists, and promoting awareness of preventable vision problems.
Through her clinic and active social media presence, Dr. Oketta has become a strong advocate for early detection of childhood eye conditions, including leukocoria. She has consistently shared KnowTheGlow’s educational materials and messaging on social media, helping extend awareness to both clinical audiences and online communities. Her efforts have reinforced the importance of spotting early warning signs such as a white glow in a child’s eye and the urgency of taking action to prevent potential vision loss from serious conditions like retinoblastoma.
We deeply value the work of dedicated professionals like Dr. Oketta who are using their platforms, expertise, and community connections to ensure more children have a chance to receive timely diagnosis and care.
