Dr. Bret Fisher speaks at the New Orleans Academy of Ophthalmology
On Thursday, December 3rd, local eye surgeon Dr. Bret Fisher of the Eye
Center of North Florida was the invited guest lecturer at the quarterly
meeting of the New Orleans Academy of Ophthalmology. Over 50
ophthalmologists from Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama were in
attendance to hear Dr. Fisher speak on recent advances in cataract
surgery. The New Orleans Academy of Ophthalmology is one of the oldest
physician specialty organizations in the United States, having been
organized in 1951 as unique collaboration between LSU Medical School,
Tulane Medical School and the local private practitioners. The first
official meeting followed shortly, in January of 1952. For the last 50
years, the Academy has remained true to its original mission, “to
promote ophthalmic education through instructional courses, clinics,
lectures, and seminars, at which guest speakers will present subjects of
current interest and importance.” Dr. Fisher is a founding partner of
the Eye Center of North Florida, the area’s largest eye care facility.
He specializes in cataract and refractive surgery, and has practiced in
Panama City since 1993.
