Master Techniques in Cataract and Refractive Surgery

F. Hampton Roy, MD, FACS, has a private practice in Little Rock, Ark. He is the author of 120 articles and 33 books, and is Medical Director of the World Eye Foundation. Dr. Roy has worked in Peru, Bolivia, China, and India to improve current information systems. He is Clinical Associate Professor of Ophthalmology at University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences. Carlos Walter Arzabe, MD, practices medicine in Santa Cruz, Bolivia. Dr. Arzabe is a former Research Fellow of Harvard University Eye Research Institute from Boston and Schepens Retina Associates. He has written in several world ophthalmic journals and books, and in the past few years has published with the Pan American Association of Ophthalmology a diabetic retinopathy manual. Most recently, with the support of the World Eye Foundation and Dr. Roy’s guidance, teaching, and editing, he published a glaucoma manual (written in Spanish), which has been distributed for free in 16 countries. In 1996 he was the winner of the world contest, the Ten Outstanding Young Persons of the World Award, in the category of Medical Innovations, by the Junior Chamber International, Inc. Both doctors practice general ophthalmology with an emphasis on cataract and refractive surgery. Because one editor is from Little Rock, Ark and one editor is from Santa Cruz, Bolivia, this book has an international flavor that will certainly please the readers.
