In this second installment of our series on Native Americans and Ophthalmology, we hear from an individual who has done more than just improve access to eye care—he’s shown what’s possible in the fight against diabetic vision loss for Native American communities in Oklahoma. His groundbreaking work has not only changed lives but has also set the standard for how care can be delivered to underserved populations.
We’ll also discuss how he’s now working to expand eye care access to an even broader population and how his experiences with the Native American communities in Oklahoma continue to shape the work he’s doing today.
This story is about commitment, impact, and what it truly means to care for people the best way we know how.
