Opening the current @OphthTimes to enjoy some prose from @3Y3MD. Guess I’m not the only one to re-fold my daughters clothes, though not where I thought it was going. Expected refolding clothes to metaphor working with trainees in some capacity. #iowaeyefam cdn.sanity.io/files/0vv8moc6…
Thanks to the #retina team @uiowaeye for helping show diabetic vitrectomy, especially with vitreous hemorrhage present, can significantly improve patient function in daily living. #iowaeyefam #surgery
Our #retina fellow just published this paper showing how patients with the worst form of #retinopathy from #diabetes benefit from surgery. 28% had vision to obtain drivers license post-op vs 6% pre. Important for #truckers (5.7m in US)and many others ppl! go.nature.com/34yan5r
Watching Sesame Street with my kids, they sang “they call it practice...once your heroes were beginners too!” Often forgotten but a valid and inspiring concept in all fields. #ophthoMatch #ophthalmology #sesamestreetheroes
At the age where my body can no longer handle things like sleeping on an air mattress or Taco Bell. #oldsoul #nothingbutpain #dancership
I recall that fun case! Such an awesome opportunity to do these types of cases while a resident at @uiowaeye, laying the foundation for the best patient care. #iowaeyefam #farmstrong #ophthalmology #surgery
Great case of traumatic cataract from @AaronRicca when he was @uiowaeye chief resident. We use almost every trick: iris hook, MST retractors, CTR, trypan blue, optic capture. youtu.be/yD8-nresWiA via @YouTube #cataract #ophthotwitter #cataract #ophth
I get home from work to see my 3 year old daughter dancing to some @BrunoMars yelling “hot sauce” and my wife denies ever teaching her that. I have many questions. #dadlife #Parenthood
Helping me edit a fun case where I learned the Iowa shuck and glued iol with @3Y3MD and @cataractsurgery, here at @uiowaeye we routinely have combo cases to maximize patient care and surgical education... unfortunately seconds before a poopy diaper. #iowaeyefam #surgery

If I called my dad to tell him happy fathers day instead of posting on social media does that even count?

The #podfather of #ophthalmology mentoring in big way already and teaching jet stream for iris prolapse! @cataractsurgery #MELiveMiami
