Hey! So New York was great last weekend...
Here's the link to the public Facebook album:
This is a picture of a beautiful sunset in CT on the way up to Boston.
Tomorrow I finish shadowing Dr. Perry Rosenthal (and his team), Founder and Director of the Boston Foundation for Sight, who created the Boston Lens, a contact lens that rests entirely on the white tissue (sclera) of the eye, arching over a damaged cornea creating a space that is filled with artificial tears. The effect is to create a smooth optical surface over the diseased cornea that replaces its distorted surface that improves vision; a bandage for some of the most devastating corneal diseases that torture their victims with constant, unrelenting pain and disabling photosensitivity and for which there was no definitive treatment options in the past. Dr. Jacobs, Dr. Kwok, Dr. Carrasquillo, and everyone else at the Boston Foundation for Sight were incredibly kind, skilled, and great teachers as I learned about eye care for these few days.
So, I leave for London tomorrow night around 7:45 and arrive early in the morning. I'll be in London to the weekend, when I go to Amsterdam to catch my flight on to Delhi! On June 17th, I fly from Dehli to Bagdogra and then head up to Darjeeling until the 19, when I head to Chennai to start my work with Unite for Sight.
I'm heading to sleep, but I'll write again asap.
Bye to the US!
Heres my trip route:
