The Eye Clinic was closed down in March, 2016 following several concerns regarding excessive heat at the Eye Clinic.

Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital has re-opened the Eye Clinic "following several concerns regarding excessive heat at the centre".

Authorities at the centre said the restructuring was due to improve the poor ventilation and unsafe working condition(s) at the clinic.

A statement signed by the Public Relations Officer of the hospital Mustapha Salifu, stated that “We have successfully upgraded the ventilation and cooling system at the centre and thus improved the working environment and safety of both staff and patients.”
