Cory Lappin, OD, FAAO, discusses his passion for dry eye, cornea and anterior segment disease with Dr. Joseph Allen.
Dr. Cory Lappin knew as an optometry student that he found his passion for dry eye, cornea and anterior segment disease as his fellow students commonly complained about symptoms of dry eye. After completing his residency at Cincinnati Eye Institute, he was fortunate to join Phoenix Eye Care and Dry Eye Center of Arizona, where he was mentored by the legendary Dr. Art Epstein. Since publishing the Ultimate Guide to Dry Eye, Dr. Lappin has continued to pursue his passion for writing and educating, putting an emphasis on scientific literacy. Dr. Lappin’s passion for the advances in ocular surface disease diagnosis and treatment is contagious.
