Genius Leo

Communications is such an important part of having an Orbis program be successful. When the Orbis team lands in a given country, everyone gets local SIM cards placed in their phones so the whole team can be in constant contact. Luckily, this trip there is also an internet node that has been rigged up for the Flying Eye Hospital.

Yesterday morning I, Leo, and Jin Sook (pictured above) spent a fair amount of time "jerry-rigging" the parts from three different vitrectomy units at Mengo Hospital. We got it to work, mainly thanks to the genius of Leo. Leo was also the "trouubleshooter" for many years at King Khaled Eye Specialist Hospital, where we worked together for many years.
