}}Frank M Polack (April 28, 1929 – July 15, 2007) was an American ophthalmologist, specializing in surgery and treatment of diseases of the eye.[1]

He designed the Polack forceps for corneal transplants with two teeth on either side to make it easier to place the first stitch in a donor button for corneal transplants. He taught many residents at Columbia Presbyterian Hospital's Harkness Eye institute before moving on to Florida.
