Dell Medical School at the University of Texas at Austin recently received a $20 million gift to create the Mitchel and Shannon Wong Eye Institute, which would help train future ophthalmologists.
The gift was made by the Wong family of Austin, and the institute is named for father and son ophthalmologists Mitchel and Shannon Wong.
In addition to training ophthalmologists, the Eye Institute will help further research into the improvement and preservation of vision as it will allow for a new focus on ophthalmology at the Dell Medical School.
