(Super!) WOMEN IN OPHTHALMOLOGY

Let’s harness our superpowers and make the field of ophthalmology better — and brighter.

Nova Eye Medical is fortunate to partner with some trailblazing women ophthalmologists via our Medical Advisory Board, including Dr. Oluwatosin Tosin” Smith, Dr. Analisa Arosemena, Dr. Ticiana De Francesco, and Dr. Rachel Simpson. Beyond this, we are fortunate to be part of a bigger community of incredible women in the field of ophthalmology, from ophthalmologists and nursing staff through to researchers and practice administrators. Indeed, there is no shortage of remarkable women who contribute their superpowers daily to the field of ophthalmology.

Whether it be an ambitious appetite for education and research, the ability to tackle a multitude of projects without breaking a sweat, handling situations with supreme diplomacy or an unfaltering commitment to patient advocacy, everyday thousands of women are applying their superpowers and, in doing so, making a positive, unique and important impact on the field of ophthalmology. 

So, we ask you: What’s your superpower?
