The late Dr. Richard White
In 2019 an 80-year-old man came to our eye clinic for loss of sight. He was blind. An eye exam revealed dense bilateral cataracts. Our volunteer staff got to work to schedule cataract surgery. He lived in a shack behind a grocery store on Washington Blvd. I volunteered to drive him and an interpreter to the outpatient surgery. The operation was very successful. When he next appeared at the clinic he was so grateful for the return of his vision.
