Radial Keratotomy

Hello, There’s some information that you may want to look into and add to this . My father, Dr. John P, Beale, Junior and Dr. Baraquer from Columbia worked in parallel with him to help pioneer this technique. prior to this Baraquer and my father were removing corneas freezing with liquid nitrogen, running them on a lathe and putting them back into the eye. They met Fedorov at a microsurgical convention and began to work on this in parallel. My father had the San Francisco Eye institute in the Baraquer family had a similar institute in Columbia. They provided training to doctors in order to push the surgical technique forward. My father, had developed a 3-D microscope to help Surgeons with the depth of field. While performing surgery.

my father spent lots of money out of his own pocket in order to get insurance companies to cover RK and Lasik. Glasses are a prosthetic. He felt that people should not be forced to wear them if there was a better solution. feel free to reach out to me if you want my company is bealemechanical.
