Show Notes
Clearly KC host Dr. Melissa Barnett OD visits with Poppy McCabe, a recent graduate of Falmouth University in England. Poppy was runner-up in the 2023 World KC Day Photo Contest. Her submission shows her at her final art exhibit at school. Investigating symptoms associated with her Ehlers Danlos syndrome, Poppy learned keratoconus was the source of her vision struggles. She used her diagnosis as inspiration for an installation that invites viewers to experience the visual distortions that accompany keratoconus. Through graphic design, Poppy found a way to channel her creativity to raise diseases awareness.
