Company History
Casey's roots reach back to the end of World War II. In 1945, Kenneth Swan, M.D., founded the Department of Ophthalmology at what was then the University of Oregon Medical School -- now OHSU.
Dr. Swan, considered the "Father of Oregon Ophthalmology," was the school's first chair and its first full-time instructor, and started the first three-year ophthalmology residency program in the Pacific Northwest.
Over the following decades, the OHSU ophthalmology department grew to become one of the most respected in the United States. In 1991, we became the Casey Eye Institute, named for James and George Casey, founders of United Parcel Service. And in the quarter-century since then, we've become an even stronger national and international leader — in our pioneering research, our expert clinical care and innovations, and our teaching.
