What if some of medicine’s biggest opportunities lie not in inventing new treatments, but in questioning what we already accept as standard practice?
Dr. Rishi Singh, Chair of Ophthalmology at Mass General Brigham and Professor at Harvard Medical School, joins Nic to explore the evolution of ophthalmology through AI, imaging, oculomics, precision medicine, and remote care.
They examine how AI can democratize expertise, how the eye can serve as a window into systemic disease, and why longitudinal data could replace “one-size-fits-all” treatment.
The deeper lesson: innovation happens when technology changes not only what we can do, but what we consider possible… and what we stop doing simply because it has always been done.
