The Macula Society's success is a tribute to the Founders, Officers, Chairpersons and Committee members who have given freely of their time and efforts to further the mission of the Society. The Macula Society also recognizes its many sponsors, without whose support the Society could not be so excellent. Most important, however, to the success of the Society, has been the remarkable loyalty of its members, who present their best work at the annual meeting.
