The American Academy of Ophthalmology (AAO) is the world’s largest association of eye physicians and surgeons. With more than 32,000 members worldwide, the AAO is committed to providing continuing ophthalmic education, advancing the art and science of ophthalmology and providing lifelong learning opportunities for ophthalmologists.
AAO 2025 is a strategic plan that outlines the Academy’s goals for the future. The plan focuses on five key areas: advocacy, education, research, global outreach, and membership. The goal is for the academy to be the leading global source for ophthalmic knowledge, and to advance the art and science of ophthalmology.
