The Ophthalmologist Power List returns for its 14th iteration in 2027 – ready once again to celebrate the people making their mark on the field.
And, as always, they must be nominated by you: our readers, friends, and followers.
This year, we’re looking for those ophthalmologists whose ideas, research, innovations, and leadership look set to transform the profession in the years ahead – that is, the ophthalmologists in the vanguard.
Their work might be opening up a new area of research, reimagining clinical practice, advancing technology, improving education, widening access to eye care, or challenging the way ophthalmology is currently understood. Whatever form it takes, we want to recognize the people whose influence is only just beginning to be felt – but whose impact could be profound.
So, who is thinking beyond today? Which of your peers is pursuing work with the potential to change the direction of ophthalmology? Who should the global community be watching closely?
Now is your chance to put them – or yourself – into the ophthalmology spotlight and help us celebrate those shaping what comes next.
Nominations will close on January 4, 2026. Propose your candidate at the link below.
