Frank B. Walsh, MD

1895/10/18 - 1978/11/27

Frank B. Walsh worked as a neuro-ophthalmologist at the Wilmer Eye Institute of Johns Hopkins Hospital. Walsh is best known for his textbook Clinical Neuro-Ophthalmology, which contains a compilation of Walsh's case reports and the conclusions he drew from them. Walsh is considered by many to be the father of neuro-ophthalmology due to his contributions to the field.
