Welcome to our celebration of the most inspirational and influential leaders in ophthalmology

100 reasons to be proud

This is the third time we have tried to map the Top 100 most influential people in the world of ophthalmology. The list includes surgeons, scientists, engineers, CEOs and more, and each one of them has been voted for by you, our readers.

We realize our Power Lists can – and should – never be definitive. But who can argue that the faces within – both familiar and new – do not beautifully highlight the brilliance and diversity found within the field? Accordingly, we bring you 100 reasons to be proud of ophthalmology.
