Optometric Physician
"I knew I wanted to pursue a career in eye care when I was in high school. I had a strong love for biology, chemistry, and the sciences, and I was initially considering becoming a pharmacist. A turning point came when my next-door neighbor—an optometrist—invited me to shadow her in her practice. As I watched her move from room to room caring for patients, one moment stood out clearly. She was reviewing a visual field test and recognized signs that suggested a possible brain lesion. In that moment, it all clicked for me. The eyes truly are a window into overall health, including the brain. That experience showed me how impactful and far-reaching eye care can be, and from then on, I was completely hooked."
