Loran B. Morgan, M.D. developed the Morgan Lens during his third tour
as a volunteer physician in Vinh Long, Vietnam.


Many
of the serious eye cases, he noticed, began as simple infections that
had not received adequate treatment. Proper care of eye injuries
requires both protection of the eye from irritation by the eyelid and
the constant delivery of sterile fluids and/or medication to the eye –
neither of which were available to Dr. Morgan at the time.
“You couldn’t
expect a nurse to keep coming back to put in eye drops as often as they
were needed,” he explained. Thus, he developed the Morgan
Lens, the most widely used method of ocular irrigation today. A graduate
of the University of Minnesota Medical School, Battalion Surgeon during
World War II, specialist in ophthalmology and Fellow of the International
and American Colleges of Surgeons, Dr. Morgan enjoyed a long and impressive
career, saving thousands of patient’s eyes all over the world.
And, thanks to his battlefield invention, his work will continue to
do so for generations to come.
