The late Arthur
Light, MD, was born in Brooklyn, New York and graduated from
Chicago Medical School in 1943. He served two years in the
Public Health Service as a medical officer and again during the
Korean War. He took his residency training at the Illinois Eye
and Ear Infirmary in Chicago and became an expert in glaucoma.
With Dr. Thomas Stamm
and Dr. James McDonald he co-founded FOCUS, Inc., where he donated
his eye skills in Haiti and Nigeria. He was an active member
of the Board of Directors of FOCUS as well as the Treasurer.
He is known to the Loyola Ophthalmology Department for
his dedication to teaching and compassionate care of his
patients. Faculty and residents alike have benefited
from his expertise in the field of glaucoma. Dr. Light
retired from professional activity in June, 1989. The
lectureship was established to continue Dr. Light's mission to
teach.
Each year, the
Department of Ophthalmology at Loyola University Medical Center
presents a program at which a prominent glaucoma expert will speak.
The Arthur Light, MD,
Memorial Lectureship in Ophthalmology was established by the
generous contributions of the Light family. |
