Stein and Doheny Eye Institutes, UCLA Medical Center
The UCLA Stein Eye Institute vision-science campus, which opened in 1966, is the culmination of an ambitious plan devised by ophthalmologist, businessman, and philanthropist Jules Stein, MD, and Bradley R. Straatsma, MD, JD, founding director of the Stein Eye Institute and founding chairman of the UCLA Department of Ophthalmology, who devised a bold plan for preventing blindness through comprehensive programs for patient care, vision-science research, education and training.
A broad agenda of program building and expansion has been implemented under the leadership of Bartly J. Mondino, MD, director and chairman since 1994: the first Stein Eye Center opened in Santa Monica in 2012; the UCLA Department of Ophthalmology established the nation's preeminent organization for ophthalmic care and vision research by forging a historic affiliation with the Doheny Eye Institute in 2013; and the Edie & Lew Wasserman Building, a landmark research and UCLA Stein Eye Institute, Stein Eye Center, Doheny Eye Center UCLA, and UCLA-affiliated institutions work together to deliver the best eye treatment to patients throughout the Southland.
Doheny Eye Institute is a separate, non-profit research institution that is proudly linked with UCLA Stein Eye Institute. Doheny Eye Center UCLA only employs UCLA Health physicians to offer patient treatment.
