RAYMOND HARRISON Obituary

HARRISON--Raymond, MD.

The members of the Ophthalmic Laser Surgical Society mourn the passing of their esteemed member and co-founder, Raymond Harrison. Ray was a fixture in New York City ophthalmology for generations as a superb teacher, advisor, clinician, surgeon, and author. We will miss his insights in Glaucoma, his friendship and his presence. Our thoughts and prayers are with wife Wilma and son David. Paul Orloff, MD, President; Robert Ritch, MD, Secretary and President Emeritus; Francis A. L'Esperance, MD, President Emeritus
