History

Following World War II, leading ophthalmologists saw the need for a comprehensive eye institute in Michigan. Through a generous grant from The Kresge Foundation, Drs. A.D. Ruedemann Sr. and Parker Heath established the Kresge Eye Institute in Detroit, bringing together physicians and scientists in a collaborative effort to preserve vision.
