      Svyatoslav Fyodorov died in a flight accident in June 2000. He was one of the most prominent contemporary scientists, a talented surgeon, the author of many inventions and discoveries in ophthalmology, and the founder of the huge inter-branch scientific and technical complex “Eye Microsurgery”.
