Christin DeMoss, OD '17 shares her #Salus100Story

"There was a patient I had who was diagnosed with macular degeneration. She described that one of her goals was to be able to play the clarinet and read music, but she had always been told there was nothing that could be done. I told her to give us a chance and I'm proud to say that we were able to work together to make a spectacle mounted telescope for her so she could see the sheet music. It worked perfectly and she was so happy - moments like that are really unforgettable."
