Enjoyed presenting one of my projects just now on eye movement, body position and optic nerve sheath widths @aao_ophth.
Looking forward to continuing to meet more amazing people involved in advancing ophthalmology!

Enjoyed spending time with students at the @ECUBrodySOM this morning. Great conversation about my work in the #NCGA and health care issues affecting North Carolina.
More than anyone, these students are thrilled to see a new, $215 million facility for the School on the way!
Amazes me that people still don’t get it. Health insurance companies don’t care about you. They want to extract money from your healthy body until you are no longer healthy, then they want you to die as quickly as possible so they can focus on other money producing bodies.
Thank you Dr. Somya Chowdhary for an interesting case presentation on Monday! The RHO gene is responsible for making rhodopsin, a protein important for low light vision. Mutations can cause lead to multiple types of rod-cone dystrophies.
