Chairman and Managing Director-Dr.Agarwal’s group of eye hospitals and Eye Research Centre, 222, TTK Road, Alwarpet, Chennai 600018, Tamilnadu, India Past President- International Society of Refractive Surgery (ISRS) Secretary General- Indian Intraocular implant and Refractive Society (IIRSI) Amar Agarwal is the pioneer of  Phakonit, which is Phako with a Needle Incision Technology. This technique became popularized as Bimanual phaco, Microincision cataract surgery (MICS) or Microphaco. He was the first to remove cataracts through a 0.7 mm tip with the technique called Microphakonit. He has also discovered No anaesthesia cataract surgery and FAVIT, a new technique to remove dropped nuclei. The air pump, which was a simple idea of using an aquarium fish pump to increase the fluid into the eye in bimanual phaco and co-axial phaco has helped prevent surge. This built the basis of various techniques of forced infusion for small incision cataract surgery.  He has also discovered a new refractive error called Aberropia. He has also been the first to do a combined surgery of microphakonit (700 micron cataract surgery) with a 25 gauge vitrectomy in the same patient thus having the smallest incisions possible for cataract and vitrectomy. He is also the first surgeon to implant a new mirror telescopic IOL (LMI) for patients suffering from age-related macular degeneration. He has also been the first in the world to implant a Glued IOL. He also has brought out the technique of IOL Scaffold in which a three-piece IOL is injected into an eye between the iris and the nucleus to prevent the nucleus from falling down in posterior capsular ruptures. Hypersonic vitrectomy for cases of PC rupture was first done by him and he was the principal investigator for the first hypersonic vitrectomy cases done in the world.   Pre Descemet’s Endothelial Keratoplasty or PDEK was started by Prof Agarwal.   Dr Agarwal has designed a new instrument called the Trocar anterior chamber maintainer in complicated cases, which helps give infusion through the anterior chamber and works like a trocar cannula. He has also started a new technique of iris suturing called Single pass Four Throw (SFT) pupilloplasty. Subsequenly he started Pinhole pupilloplasty to treat patients with high astigmatism and higher order aberrations.   Dr. Agarwal has performed more than 200 live surgeries at various conferences. His videos have won many awards at the film festivals of ASCRS, AAO and ESCRS. He has more than 250 peer review articles in top journals and has also written more than 80 books in Ophthalmology which have been published in English, Spanish, portugese and chinese. He is the Chairman and managing director of Dr.Agarwals group of eye hospitals with 221 eye hospitals in 11 countries.

David Guyton is a problem solver, a clinical innovator, an inventor, a teacher, and a communicator. He followed his grandfather, father, and uncle into medicine, becoming the first of a record ten siblings all physicians. Following a physics degree from the University in Mississippi in 1965, he obtained his MD degree from Harvard Medical School in 1969. After his residency in ophthalmology at Johns Hopkins’ Wilmer Eye Institute and a Fellowship in Strabismus with Gunter von Noorden, he returned in 1977 to Johns Hopkins as the Director of Strabismus and Pediatric Ophthalmology, until 2011, where he continues to serve as the Zanvyl Krieger Professor of Ophthalmology. Dr. Guyton’s contributions to clinical optics and strabismus have achieved international recognition. In clinical optics he gave us one of the first automated refractors; the proper techniques for prescribing cylinders, measuring strabismus with prisms, and centering corneal surgical procedures; and the Potential Acuity Meter for assessing the potential visual acuity in cataract patients. In strabismus he has given us the exaggerated traction test for assessing oblique muscle tightness, an explanation of oblique muscle overaction and A and V patterns in patients with strabismus, an explanation of the mechanism of dissociated vertical deviation, advanced adjustable suture techniques for strabismus surgery in both adults and children, and theories of how and why strabismus changes over time. For more than 45 years Dr. Guyton has been the foremost teacher of ophthalmic optics and clinical refraction in the United States. He is a Fellow of the Optical Society of America and has served on the Board of Directors, and as President, of both AAPOS and ARVO. The most recent of his 330+ publications and 19 U.S. Patents deal with remote optical systems and automated screening devices for detection of strabismus and amblyopia in infants and children.
