Dr. Biglan was one of the original founders of Pediatric Ophthalmology and Adult Strabismus. He led groundbreaking research publications on many of the early issues in the field that helped form treatment guidelines on a host of pediatric eye problems that are still in use today. He participated in the training of many, if not most, of the ophthalmology residents that have graduated from the University of Pittsburgh over the last 30 years.  Dr. Biglan retired from the practice of pediatric ophthalmology in 2006.

Mr. Reeves is currently the executive director and superintendent at the Western School for the Blind.  The School is a one-of-a-kind educational facility committed to training visually impaired students with additional disabilities. The school also provides vital early intervention and outreach services to visually impaired students.
