Nachum welcomed Dr. Norman Saffra, MD FACS, to this morning’s JM in the AM to explore “The Eyes of Isaac: Ophthalmic Care through the Prism of Judaism.”

From the book’s website:

In the Eyes of Isaac, Dr. Saffra has assembled a team of expert physicians and rabbis to create a book that will serve as a reference guide for the Jewish public, patients and their families impacted by eye conditions and visual loss as well as healthcare providers, rabbis and mental healthcare professionals.
The volume educates on the vast array of ophthalmologic conditions and tackles issues related to the impact of these conditions on religious observance, emunah, shiduchim, corneal transplantation etc.
