Ep.17 - Past & Present - Opthalmology

Casenotes - A podcast by Physicians' Gallery at RCPE - Fridays

Casenotes Past & Present is a Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh podcast. In this episode we explore the history of ophthalmology, or diseases and treatments of the eyes. Then we talk to Dr Justin McKee – a specialist currently working in the field of medical ophthalmology. As usual we’ll end up with a case study – in this episode Justin will be talking more about a historical figure who inspires him.
