We are a national and international reference thanks to our continuous commitment to improving all our areas: clinical, surgical, research and teaching.
The history of the Instituto Oftalmológico Fernández-Vega dates back to 1886 with the first ophthalmologist in the family, Dr. Adolfo Fernández-Vega. Since then, five generations of specialists trained at the best universities have dedicated themselves to providing patients with the best ophthalmology service, covering all eye diseases through specialized units.
We invite you to discover why the more than 100,000 patients who visit us each year make us a national and international reference.
The research activity carried out by the Fundación de Investigación Oftalmológica has the mission of advancing in the knowledge of diseases that cause blindness and vision disorders in order to achieve new prevention, diagnosis and medical-surgical treatment measures.
In addition to the research work of the FIO, the Instituto Universitario Fernández-Vega provides teaching in ophthalmology and vision sciences, offering various postgraduate programs such as master’s degrees and doctorates.
The Fundación Fernández-Vega brings together the traditional social work that the family has always carried out with the aim of facilitating access to ophthalmological services and benefits for disadvantaged people and groups.
