A History of Vitreoretinal Surgery

On the invitation of Henry Edelhauser and Emory Eye Center, six talented innovators of vitreoretinal surgery gathered in March 2012 on the Emory University campus in Atlanta, Georgia, USA, to spend an historic day discussing the early years of that procedure-the period between 1968-78. This film features these six leaders in the development of retinal surgery: George Blankenship (retired, Hershey Eye Center); Jean Marie Parel, (Bascom Palmer, McKnight Vision Research Center); Thomas Aaberg Sr. (chair emeritus, Emory Eye Center); Helmutt Buettner (Mayo Medical Center); Henry Edelhauser (professor and former director of research, Emory Eye Center); and Gary Abrams (Kresge Eye Institute). A highly delicate procedure, vitreoretinal surgery treats problems involving the retina --the macula and vitreous fluid--such as those visual problems caused by diabetic retinopathy and retinal tears.
