Episode 22 - Tips & Tricks from Wellness Advocate

Clearly KC Podcast

Clearly KC host Dr. Melissa Barnett OD meets up with Myeisha Essex of Los Angeles to discuss tips, tricks and hacks to simplify life with keratoconus. Myeisha shares her KC journey from diagnosis during graduate school to her career as an entertainment journalist. Her eye doctor convinced Myeisha to refocus on her vision health, and she left long days under bright studio lights to start Essex Media Group and to work as a meditation and wellness coach. Since she has transitioned to a mindfulness advocate, Myeisha has learned to slow down and pay attention to life’s lessons. In their conversation, Dr. Barnett mentions the Scleral Lens Education Society (www.sclerallens.org) as a resource for finding an expert in fitting scleral contact lenses.
