Eyes For Ears

Welcome to Eyes for Ears Chats, our new series where we bring on exciting members of the ophthalmology community, and get their insights into ophtho and beyond (we changed the name from Eyes for Ears Talks in post-production D:). This week we're recording live from the American Academy of Ophthalmology's Mid-Year Forum, which you'll get to hear about, and we are graced with a very special guest, Dr. Andrea Tooley! She is currently an oculoplastics fellow famous for her popular blog, YouTube channel, and Instagram where she covers mentorship and medical education, with tens of thousands of followers, and millions of views across her various platforms. She's also a very active member of AAOs YO Committee. This week, she talks to us about how she got into social media, her work in AAO YO, life in oculoplastics, and more.
