The Power of Lifelong Learning in Optometry
Episode 55
Tuesday, 15 July, 2025
In this episode, Dr. Allen sits down with Dr. Sweta Das, Clinical Assistant Professor at SUNY College of Optometry, to talk about what it truly means to be a lifelong learner in the world of eye care and beyond. From her early days studying ophthalmic technology in Ottawa to her current role teaching and practicing in New York, Dr. Das shares how curiosity, humility, and routine shape both her personal growth and her clinical approach. Together, they dive into the pressure that healthcare professionals often face to “know everything,” and how embracing the unknown, with the support of research, referrals, and community, can lead to better care and deeper connection. Dr. Das offers a powerful perspective on the spiritual side of learning and the value of acknowledging what you don’t know. With reflections on the phrase “know thyself” and the belief that all things are working toward something good, this conversation is a reminder that expertise isn’t about having all the answers—it’s about continuing to seek them with intention and heart. Eye Give a Damn hosted by Dr. Joseph Allen is produced by FluoreSCENE Media.
