JUNE 2022 | EYEWORLD | 13 clinician-oriented, state-of-the-art information in our ever-expanding specialty. EyeWorld is the voice of ASCRS, and in our fast-paced world, it partners with anterior segment surgeons to pro- vide information on the latest and most import- ant advances in our field in terms of surgery, medicine, and practice management in print and online. Our goal is that in every issue of EyeWorld, there is an opportunity to elevate our knowledge base and the care that we provide to our patients. For the past 7 years, I have accepted the honor and good fortune to serve as the chief medical editor of EyeWorld. Now is the time to extend the stewardship of EyeWorld to Sumit "Sam" Garg, MD, an extraordinary ophthal- mologist. Sam is a professor of ophthalmology at the University of California, Irvine, medical director of the Gavin Herbert Eye Institute, and vice chair of clinical ophthalmology. He has published extensively in the field of cornea, refractive, cataract, and external disease. He trained under the legend Roger Steinert, MD. Sam is honest, ethical, thoughtful, and insight- ful with a good sense of humor. He is a leader in our field, having chaired the ASCRS Young Eye Surgeons (YES) Clinical Committee and served as a member of the Cornea Clinical Com- mittee. I have no doubt he will raise the bar at EyeWorld, and I look forward to reading every issue going forward. In closing, I will not say goodbye because there is still so much to accomplish but a simple thank you to our readership. The pleasure has been mine. and maintaining the enthusiasm of the ASCRS staff. Richard Hoffman, MD, one of the finest cataract specialists in the world, completed his term as president of ASCRS after providing extraordinary leadership and integrity, and one of the best glaucoma surgeons in the world, Douglas Rhee, MD, has become our new presi- dent. ASCRS and EyeWorld welcome Doug and the contributions he will make to our profes- sion. I would also like to give special recognition to Edward Holland, MD, Program Committee chair of the ASCRS Annual Meeting for almost a decade. Ed works tirelessly behind the scenes to create what is universally acknowledged as the best anterior segment meeting in the world. We always leave the Annual Meeting energized and more enthusiastic than ever with the pearls we have gained to raise the quality of care provided to our patients. EyeWorld is fortunate to be led by an in- credible staff.
