The Ophthalmologist Power List 2024

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

  • Power List
  • Hall of Fame
  • Rising Stars
placeholder

It’s that time of year again, when we showcase the great and the good of ophthalmology. The graduation of some of our previous mainstays to our new Hall of Fame has opened up 2024’s ranking for quite a few changes to the Top 20 – and, seemingly, for the inclusion of several industry leaders who have not appeared on any of our Power Lists before.

As usual, the task of selecting and ranking the Top 100 ophthalmologists was a burden shouldered by our panel of judges – all internationally renowned experts in the field themselves. And once again, the insights and observations provided by our 100 chosen influencers throw a light on the cutting-edge issues and trends that are driving and shaping ophthalmology right now – as well as letting us in on some lesser-known aspects of their backgrounds and interests. So, read on… And enjoy!

These are ophthalmologists and scientists whose impact on the field will last beyond their lifetimes.

The Ophthalmologist Power List Hall of Fame launched in 2023 with the inauguration of our first ten irrefutable giants of ophthalmology.

Each subsequent year will see new inductees to the Hall of Fame. In August 2024, we added five more names to this most prestigious group:Alan Bird, Julia A. Haller, David Huang, Dennis Lam, and Tien Yin Wong.

See our Hall of Fame profiles below.
