The Department of Ophthalmology was organized by order of the rector of the Kyrgyz State Medical Institute No. 226 dated December 10, 1941. The department was headed by Doctor of Medical Sciences, Professor Dudinov Olimpiy Avramievich. He headed the department from 1941 to 1955. During these years, the first ophthalmological personnel for practical health care and science of the republic were trained.

From 1956 to 1981, the department was headed by Professor S.M. Dobrova. During this period, with the active participation of the staff of the department, eye microsurgery was introduced.
