What is a little-known fact about you?

I performed my first cataract surgery at the age of 16.

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

I love running, so perhaps a long-distance runner.

How do you think AI and machine learning will impact the field?

I believe AI will play a major role in globalizing healthcare. I’m particularly excited about how it will improve prediction tools for early disease detection.
