In this episode of the Ophthalmology Times® "Beyond the Walls" podcast, host Deborah Ristvedt, DO, sits down with Priya Mathews, MD, a cornea, cataract, and refractive surgeon, dry eye expert, and educator, to explore the experiences and passions that have shaped her career and her approach to patient care.
Mathews shares how a mentor sparked a lifelong commitment to dry eye care — a patient population she felt was historically underserved. She discusses building a dedicated dry eye rehab clinic, why treating the ocular surface is essential for premium cataract outcomes, and how her 15-year yoga practice has woven itself into her vision for whole-patient care. From navigating early career self-doubt to designing a practice built around purpose, Mathews offers an honest and inspiring look at what it means to follow your calling in medicine.

Eichenbaum Acorns is an editorially independent series powered by Modern Retina and hosted by David A. Eichenbaum, MD, FASRS, partner and director of research at Retina Vitreous Associates of Florida. This podcast series explores the overlooked corners of the retina profession through candid conversations with thought leaders. Eichenbaum is the Yiddish word for oak tree, and the aim of this series is to plant acorns of insight that grow into oaks of understanding.
In this episode, Eichenbaum speaks with two longtime friends and retina drug-development veterans: Andrea Gibson, PhD, executive vice president of medical collaborations at Ocular Therapeutix, and Erin C. Henry, PhD, AVP of Ophthalmology, General and Specialty Medicine, Value and Implementation, Global Medical and Scientific Affairs at Merck Research Labs.
Grab a seat for this one — it's part reunion, part masterclass. Gibson and Henry were there at the dawn of anti-VEGF therapy, trading stories from the front lines of a field that changed medicine forever, and 20 years later, they're still just as obsessed with the science. They swap laughs about "stumbling into" careers nobody could have mapped out for them, get real about the mentors who doubted the move to industry, and issue a challenge to the field: stop letting the next generation stumble in the same way they did. Equal parts nostalgia, candor, and a rallying cry for what comes next.

He discusses the innovations that have marked his career, including OPAP, a negative pressure goggle system for glaucoma, and a free toric IOL rotation calculator used by thousands of surgeons each month. He also speaks candidly about a high-profile business failure, the resilience it took to recover, and what he has learned about leadership along the way.
The conversation closes with reflections on mentorship, family, and legacy — and what it truly means to give more than you take.

Notes de l’épisode
In this latest episode of the Ophthalmology Times® “Beyond The Walls” podcast, host Deborah Ristvedt, DO, sits down with her ophthalmology practice partner and mentor Vance Thompson, MD, to explore the origins and ongoing impact of a team first culture at Vance Thompson Vision. The conversation covers Thompson's early frustrations with practice dynamics, his turn toward business education, and the philosophy that has guided his career and practice growth.
Thompson traces his thinking back to the late 1990s, when despite working with what he describes as "nice people," his practice was seeing more team and patient complaints than he expected. Encouraged by his brother-in-law, a physician-turned-hospital administrator, Thompson began studying the business side of medicine. He attended a course in Boca Raton, Florida, and worked with Jim Gilmore, coauthor of The Experience Economy, whose framework—"work is theater and every business a stage"—helped him reframe how he thought about patient care delivery.
The pivotal insight came when Thompson recognized that teachings focused on the customer, while he was focused on the patient. "The team experience is something that I have to have perfect, we have to have perfect before we're gonna have a great patient experience," he explains. This realization led to what became his signature and deliberately provocative principle: The patient comes second.
Thompson acknowledges the reaction that framing typically draws. "I've heard audible gasps from groups of surgeons," he says, adding that the point is not to deprioritize patients but to challenge a culture in medicine where staff are treated "less than." His argument is that an authentically cared-for team creates an environment patients feel immediately. "I don't know exactly what's going on here, but I love how they treat each other and I love how they treat me," he describes patients saying.
He also connects team first culture to burnout prevention, recounting a colleague who told him he feared he was burning out. Thompson's response: "Are you operating on eyes or are you operating on people?" Reconnecting with the human dimension of the work, he suggests, is central to sustaining energy across a career. "I always want to remember I'm a doctor first, I'm an ophthalmologist second, I'm a refractive surgeon third."
Thompson credits legendary UCLA basketball coach John Wooden with giving him "the guts to use the L word in the workplace," drawing a distinction between the love shared with family and a professional love rooted in genuine care for colleagues. He describes this openly with prospective partners: "I want them to know about the mush of me from the beginning," noting that those not open to that kind of relationship will eventually leave. He concludes that he views shared values around caring for fellow humans as a foundation for both culture and growth at Vance Thompson Vision.

In this latest episode of the Ophthalmology Times® “Beyond The Walls” podcast, host Deborah Ristvedt, DO, of Vance Thompson Vision, sits down with William B. Trattler, MD, to explore the experiences, influences, and philosophies that have shaped his career in ophthalmology. The discussion covers early inspirations, approaches to teaching, mentorship initiatives, clinical collaboration, and the evolving role of technology in patient care.
Trattler traces his introduction to medicine to his father, an ophthalmologist, whom he describes as “just such an incredible role model.” During medical school, Trattler coauthored Clinical Microbiology Made Ridiculously Simple, motivated by a desire to simplify complex material. “We should just make it ridiculously simple,” he explains, highlighting his use of visual aids and associations to enhance learning. This philosophy carries into his clinical practice, where he emphasizes simplifying the interpretation of diagnostic tools by distinguishing “what’s normal, versus abnormal,” while recognizing the variability in findings and the importance of repetition and experience.
Mentorship is a central theme, reflected in Trattler’s development of the Rising Stars in Ophthalmology program. The conversation also includes reflections on balancing professional and personal life, ongoing practice growth, generational transitions, and the future of ophthalmology.
