Honoring Our Visionaries
Your generosity for future ophthalmologists is greatly appreciated. Inside the learning center, a glass panel proudly displays our valued contributors, with space to honor our future donors.
We take great pride in our educational programs in the Department of Ophthalmology & Visual Sciences and are committed to training the best eye surgeons. Generous contributions allow us to continue our tradition of excellence in training and education. Ophthalmology learners can now use virtual reality surgical and examination simulators and surgical instruments to learn the principles of surgical procedures. Our learners can perfect their skills in a risk-free environment to prepare for the realities of the operating room. Having all four modules in an education center makes OSU a leader and exemplar in resident medical education.
“The Surgery and Clinical Learning Center is a crucial piece of our recruitment efforts to attract the best and brightest trainees, fellows, and faculty from across the country. It will also allow all of our providers to remain on the cutting edge of new surgical and diagnostic technologies and better adapt to new techniques. Finally, it will allow us to spread our educational mission to medical students and providers in other fields who need to examine the eyes and visual system of their patients.”
says Andrew Hendershot, MD, Director of the Residency Program

The changing nature of medical practice and national demand for accountability in medical education highlight the need for a leading-edge clinical skills center .
