During World War II, the boy, along with his relatives, was evacuated to Armenia. There he graduated from high school, and then entered the Yerevan Military School. Young Svyatoslav wanted to become a soldier, like his father. But due to tragic circumstances (he lost his foot) he could not continue military service. Then Svyatoslav Fedorov decides to devote himself to medicine. He graduates from a medical institute and defends a doctorate, works as a doctor in a small village, then heads the department of eye diseases in Moscow. In nineteen seventy-two, he manages to perform an operation on the lens of the eye for the first time. This gave rise to a new direction in medicine - refractive surgery. And in the year nineteen eighty-sixth, a talented doctor became the general director of the IRTC “Eye Microsurgery”. The works of this scientist have become classics in ophthalmology. On the second of June of the two thousandth year, the life of this great man was cut off in a plane crash.
