Relin, David Oliver. (Author). Shapiro, Rob. (Added Author).

Summary:

David Oliver Relin shines a light on the work of Geoffrey Tabin and Sanduk Ruit, gifted ophthalmologists who have dedicated their lives to restoring sight to some of the world's most isolated, impoverished people through the Himalayan Cataract Project, an organization they founded in 1995. This book takes us from improvised plywood operating tables in villages without electricity or plumbing to state-of-the-art surgical centers at major American universities wehre these two driven men are restoring sight--and hope-- to patients from around the world.
