About the LSU Eye Center

The LSU Eye Center’s clinic relocated to 3700 St. Charles Avenue in New Orleans in October, 2011. The 6,881 square-foot clinic includes 12 examination rooms, one minor procedure room, testing rooms, and photography. Optometric and low vision care is also available at a private clinic in Slidell, approximately 40 miles away. In January, 2007, University Hospital reopened at its original location at the LSUHSC downtown medical campus, and emergency and trauma services as well as ophthalmic surgeries are now available at this location. A University Hospital-based Lions ophthalmology clinic is open at 1450 Poydras Street, 3rd floor, New Orleans in the former Lord & Taylor building.

The LSU Eye Center is committed to the future of eye care and vision science and provides innovative research and an educational program that trains tomorrow's ophthalmologists, ophthalmic health care givers, and vision scientists.
