My guests for this episode are Professor Sobha Sivaprasad, Consultant Ophthalmologist at Moorfields Eye Hospital and Professor of Retinal Clinical Studies at the UCL Institute of Ophthalmology in London, and Professor Gemmy Cheung, Professor and Senior Consultant Ophthalmologist at the Singapore National Eye Centre, Duke-NUS Medical School, National University of Singapore. In this special episode, we discuss our experiences as women working in ophthalmology, and the advice we would give to young, aspiring ophthalmologists.
We also talk about what it meant to us to be named on The Ophthalmologist’s Power List, and how the next generation of ophthalmologists can be empowered through mentorship. We recommend visiting the Vision Academy Program website and nAMD Barometer Program website. We participate in these Programs to help develop important materials and training resources for clinicians and patients to improve patient-focused care and clinical practice.
