Kenneth N. Ogle

Kenneth N. Ogle (1902-1968) was a scientist of human vision. Born in Colorado, he earned a bachelor's degree from Colorado College in 1925 and a Ph.D. from Dartmouth College in 1930. He was later awarded an honorary medical degree by the University of Uppsala in Sweden.

He spent much of his working life at the Dartmouth Eye Institute, to which he was appointed by Adelbert Ames, Jr.. He made significant contributions to the understanding of human binocular vision. In 1967, he won the Tillyer Medal, awarded by the Optical Society of America. He died less than two months after retiring from the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, where he had begun working as a consultant in 1947.
