Eric Blair Presents – Daily Knowledge: Patricia Bath (Day 5)

Patricia Bath is an ophthalmologist credited as the first African American woman doctor to receive a patent for a medical purpose. Bath received the patent in 1988 for an “Apparatus for ablating and removing cataract lenses”, a version of a device designed to help remove cataracts with a fiberoptic laser. It is sometimes falsely cited that Bath was the original inventor of this type of device, which became prominent during the mid 1970s.
