Pillars of medicine
“The pillars of medicine – patient care, teaching, and research –
are all important and rewarding. I have been fortunate to work among
some of ophthalmology’s leading scientists, and also to teach at a
remarkable university for nearly 20 years. But nothing compares to
the experience of helping individual patients overcome visual
disability, and to watch them benefit from the most recent advances
in our field.”
