During the week of International Women’s Day, we commemorate a pioneer in the ophthalmology field, Dr. Patricia Bath.
✨ She invented the Laserphaco Probe used for cataract surgery.
Because of this device, she was the first African American woman to get a medical patent in the United States.
✨ She developed the concept of community ophthalmology to deliver attention to neglected populations.
Thanks to her innovation, thousands of people around the world were able to recover their vision and improve their quality of life.
We, at Precision Eye Care, believe, just like Dr. Bath, that medical excellence and human commitment should go together.
Today we celebrate all the women who open new paths, illuminate science, and transform lives.
