Since our founding in 1824, Mass. Eye and Ear has been guided by a focused mission “that the deaf may hear
and the blind may see.” Today, our vision is to be the preeminent world-wide source of advances and leaders
in preserving and restoring vision, hearing, balance and voice and in treating and curing disorders of the head
and neck.
Patients come to Mass. Eye and Ear for specialized care from Boston, New England, throughout the United
States, and from more than 99 countries around the world.
Mass. Eye and Ear is the primary teaching hospital of Harvard Medical School in ophthalmology and
otolaryngology. Each year, approximately 100 residents and fellows participate in one of the most soughtafter
medical training programs in the country.
