Patricia Era Bath (November 4, 1942 – May 30, 2019) was an African American ophthalmologist and humanitarian. She became the first female member of the Jules Stein Eye Institute, the first woman to lead a postgraduate training program in ophthalmology, and the first woman elected to the honorary staff of the UCLA Medical Center. Bath was the first African-American to serve as a resident in ophthalmology at New York University. She was also the first African-American woman to serve on staff as a surgeon at the UCLA Medical Center.

Bath’s research showed that blindness, especially caused by glaucoma, was more prevalent among Black Americans than the general population. In 1976, she co-founded the nonprofit American Institute for the Prevention of Blindness in Washington, D.C., to advance a program of “community ophthalmology” that would expand the availability of treatment for, education about, and prevention of eye diseases to medically underserved populations.[1]

In the 1980s, Bath’s development of the laserphaco probe led to safer and more precise cataract surgery. With the device, she became the first African-American woman doctor to receive a patent for a medical purpose.[2]

Now that’s what I call a doctor with vision!

Eh? Eh?
