Professor of Ophthalmology, Fellowship Program Director, Vitreoretinal Diseases & Surgery, Baylor College of Medicine, Cullen Eye Institute, Texas, USA

If you weren’t an ophthalmologist, what would you be doing instead?

I’m not sure I have the talent to make it, but my pipedream is to work in the fashion industry. Though I am totally a left-brained person, there’s something about crafting a beautiful look that brings me joy. I love that fashion is more than just clothes or shoes, but is really about style which can span an infinite spectrum depending on the person and how they want to express themselves. Maybe one of these days, I’ll find a way to creatively weave this into my real career – a line of scrubs or something. You can bet that they would be the most colorful and frilly scrubs anyone has ever seen!
