Why did you want to become a Cybersight Mentor?

I am a Cybersight mentor because I believe in Orbis’ mission and its approach to addressing the global concerns of avoidable blindness through clinician training. It is a privilege to work on Orbis projects and Cybersight programs, passing on the clinical expertise I have been lucky enough to receive from my mentors and then learn from the international colleagues I am discussing topics with. To belong to such a large international community whose sole focus is on improving patient outcomes through collaborative care is really something special.
