The Holland Foundation for Sight Restoration announced a partnership with the prestigious Mass Eye and Ear to establish the foundation’s third Center of Excellence in the U.S.

Led by Thomas Dohlman, MD, medical director of the Boston Keratoprosthesis Program at Mass Eye and Ear and an assistant professor of ophthalmology at Harvard Medical School, and Jia Yin, MD, PhD, MPH, Director of the Cornea Fellowship at Mass Eye and Ear and also an assistant professor of ophthalmology at Harvard Medical School, the new Center of Excellence will work closely with the Holland Foundation to implement innovative treatments and expand patient care.

The Holland Foundation for Sight Restoration is anchored by Edward Holland, MD, an internationally recognized and pioneering ophthalmologist in the treatment of Severe Ocular Surface Disease practices at the Cincinnati Eye Institute and at St. Elizabeth Hospital in Edgewood, KY. Mass Eye and Ear is an international center for treatment and home to the world’s largest vision and hearing research centers. Mass Eye and Ear is a member of the Mass General Brigham health care system and a teaching hospital of Harvard Medical School.

Mass Eye and Ear joins Cincinnati in the Midwest and the University of California-Irvine on the West Coast as Holland Foundation Centers of Excellence, which are designed to provide comprehensive coverage across the U.S. and ensure that patients have opportunities to receive life-changing treatments close to where they live.
