Eichenbaum Acorns is an editorially independent article and podcast series powered by Modern Retina and hosted by David A. Eichenbaum, MD, FASRS, partner and director of research at Retina Vitreous Associates of Florida. Presented in a Q&A-style format, the series explores the often-overlooked dimensions of the retina specialist profession—ranging from clinical decision-making and innovation to career development and personal perspective. Through candid conversations with leading voices in the field, Eichenbaum Acorns seeks to uncover the insights that shape modern retina care. Inspired by its namesake—“Eichenbaum,” the Yiddish word for oak—the series aims to plant small “acorns” of insight that grow into deeper understanding and long-term impact for retina specialists.
