Kym learns about the future of eye health from Dr. Harvey Fishman

Joining Kym today is Dr. Harvey Fishman, founder of the Stanford Retinal Prosthesis Project. He explains how the iris alone is a muscle that can be used to identify people as you would a fingerprint as well as detect diseases. Kym then has Dr. Fishman talk to us about several other eye health and technology subjects including:

• Biometric technology to monitor immigration
• Technology controlled by eyes
• Eye health facts and myths related to technology
• Blue blockers and dry eye syndrome
• Retinal prosthesis aka the Bionic Eye
• Startups currently in progress including digital health and the Cool Doctors app
• Stem cells, drops and gene therapy for cataracts
• Potential impact of virtual reality headsets
