Billy Xiaoyi Pan, MD, has been named the 2017-2018 Richard J. Simmons and Ruthanne B. Simmons Glaucoma Fellow in the Harvard Department of Ophthalmology. This annual award was established in 2011 in recognition of two glaucoma physicians who were Harvard Ophthalmology graduates: the late Dr. Ruthanne Simmons and her father Dr. Richard Simmons, a generous supporter of Mass. Eye and Ear and the department’s Ophthalmology educational program. This award honors a legacy of academic excellence by providing funding to a glaucoma fellow at Harvard Ophthalmology. In addition to his clinical and teaching responsibilities, Dr. Pan has a strong interest in minimally invasive glaucoma surgeries and their role in the evolving treatment paradigm of glaucoma.
