The legacy of Dr. and Mrs. Jules Stein arises from their role in the
20th century as visionaries. Through brilliance and beneficence,
they created a multitude of programs aimed specifically at
one goal: preserving and restoring eyesight. They approached
this task dauntlessly, integrating the worlds of business,
medicine and philanthropy in such a way as to enhance each
and leave in trust the promise of limitless accomplishment
in the advancement of eye research and treatment. The Jules
Stein Eye Institute was established as a result of their
philanthropy.
