These residents won second place at the Eyecelerator competition held prior to this month’s American Academy of Ophthalmology conference in Chicago, receiving a $15,000 prize—the first such prize awarded to residents—for their development of a smartphone device designed to take fundus images.

In this first of an exclusive three-part Ophthalmology Times EyePod podcast series on innovation, we meet Jibran Sharieff, MD (PGY-2), and Brandon Kingrey, MD (PGY-3), who are residents at the Dean McGee Eye Institute (DMEI)/University of Oklahoma Department of Ophthalmology in Oklahoma City. They recently won second place at the Eyecelerator competition held prior to this month’s American Academy of Ophthalmology conference in Chicago, receiving a $15,000 prize—the first such prize awarded to residents—for their development of a smartphone device designed to take fundus images. This innovative tool aims to advance ophthalmic imaging accessibility.

Join us as Sharieff and Kingrey share insights into their project and their journey as young innovators in eye care.
