The Academy evolved from the American Academy of Ophthalmology and Otolaryngology, founded in 1896 primarily to provide continuing education to eye, ear, nose and throat doctors. In 1979, AAOO divided into separate academies for each specialty and the American Academy of Ophthalmology incorporated as an independent organization.
