From time to time, ophthalmologists experience joyous accomplishments in their professional career. In my forty years of practice, I have enjoyed these accomplishments several times. One such instance is when one makes a correct diagnosis that the other colleague fails to make, resulting in the loss of vision.  Beverly Hannon, which her friends call her Bev, is a patient that all doctors would like to have because she is sweet and kind. Bev went to the optical of a major department store, where they prescribed glasses. Noticing no improvement in her vision, she came to us. She was practically blind. After examining her, I told her that she probably had a brain tumor that was compressing her optic nerves. Unfortunately, my suspicions came true and after the neurosurgeon operated, her vision recovered significantly. Every time Bev comes to my office she says thank you, “Dr. Rojas for saving my life and making me see again!” During the last visit she told me “this is a gift for you to show that I can see.” Bev didn’t notice that my eyes teared up when I received her gift.
