Sometimes it’s so cold in Chicago you have to ask yourself: Is that billboard the temperature? Or the price of gas
In the absence of call and sunlight my body has remarkably reverted back to an east coast circadian rhythm Status: hibernating
Morning status Me: drinking Fiji water with my vegan “dry eye” powder packet with vitamins and antioxidants Man next to me: first coke of the day United: we are offering alcoholic beverages, enjoy your flight Time:0700
No one: Doctors trying to have lunch on their 3 minute break when they're on call:
Is it frowned upon to bring your freshly eneucleated pig eyes to the gym ? Asking for a friend
Home call life is not for me, man.
Patient sees floater - thinks it’s a bug Me - sees bug - immediately asks for DFE 🦟🐞🪲
My attending before my first ever pterygium excision (as primary): so Dara this really isn’t a first year level case… Me:
Is it a sign of dark times that I’ve memorized the ICD-10 for NVG #eyeresident
Furthermore, my superpower is running up 3 flights of stairs in an N95 carrying my trusty Tonopen #eyegirlprobs
If being a bag lady were a sport I’d be an Olympic medalist on this consult block 🥸
The sign of a start of an ophtho era: indirect headlamp-derived forehead acne 🙄 #babyeyedoc #thatsmyjob
It’s been a roller coaster ride this year. Last ED shift in the books, hung up that thing that supposedly listens to heart and lungs and dusted off my lenses — here’s to PGY-2! Time to become an #ophthores 🥸 Please only page during business hrs 🙏🏼
1/3 - The Mystery In medical school, I was warned to "beware the patient with unilateral icterus" as this portended something bad. As in this case from @NEJM. What can explain this finding? nejm.org/doi/pdf/10.105…
Also 4 types of hair clips and scrunchies to keep those luscious locks out of patient faces 💇🏻♀️
Things u need in residency: 1) blackout curtains 2) good pillows 3) at least 5 pairs of scrubs 4) *some type of fleece zip up 5) I use my cellphone more than laptop 6) the most comfortable sneakers + buy another pair for backup 7) 2 dozen socks + underwear 1/2
Bilateral painless vision loss…in an entire population 🙆🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️ Wait till I’m a PGY2
