Such books include his renowned 1200-page text; (Pediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus), a top selling AAP book (Pediatric Ophthalmology for Primary Care), and Color Atlas of Strabismus Surgery. Of note of interest, the youngest of Dr. Wright’s five children had “crossed eyes” in infancy, of which Dr. Wright performed “early surgery” with great results. Dr. Wright founded the Wright Foundation for Pediatric Ophthalmology, a 501(c)(3) non-profit, whose mission is to reduce blindness and suffering from eye disorders in children through research, education, and clinical care. To this end, Dr. Wright has established a special pediatric eye clinic that serves underprivileged children.
