Abstract

It is an honor and an enormous privilege to be able to present Professor Sohan Singh Hayreh, rightly considered “A living legend of Ophthalmology”.

As will be evident to those who read the interview, he is someone who has developed intense medical and surgical activity and has raised several clinical research laboratories from scratch. His activity was developed on three continents, thanks to an enormous capacity for change, sacrifice and refusal of the status quo.

Author of more than 450 articles and 50 book chapters, he received significant recognition and applause from the Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology, American Academy of Ophthalmology, Royal College of Ophthalmologists and International Society for Eye Research.
