 My name is Sarah Sunshine. I am an assistant professor of ophthalmology at the University of Maryland. I am a cornea specialist. I do cornea and refractive surgery. I also specialize in cataract surgery and complex cataract surgeries and I have a particular interest in ocular surface disease and dry eye disease and I'm also a member of the cancer center. I have a specialty clinic in ocular graft versus host disease and really looking at ocular changes related to cancer therapy. Practice is really a wide range of patients with both corneal diseases so patients with keratoconus or dry eye disease or ocular surface disease or also with different reasons for having corneal changes which lead them to need a corneal transplant. You know when you see a patient get better sometimes it's you know they sit up in the operating room they sit up from a cataract surgery they had a very dense lens and they sit up and they go oh my gosh I can see and it's extraordinary but also those patients that you work with them over a long period of time like my ocular graft versus host disease patients you you work with them and small changes really are extraordinary for them and you just feel so excited and amazed at what we are able to do to help our patients. I really focus on listening to what the patients are telling me and what symptoms they're having and understanding their lives so that I can better formulate a plan that's that's reasonable and doable for each patient so some patients are able to make a lot of changes all at once and some needs to be more of a gradual progress over time that we work together and and also just in the diagnosis of the patients you really need to understand where they're coming from and and listen to them.
