Cardiology
Every heartbeat tells a story, and cardiologists listen carefully to diagnose, treat, and protect the rhythm of life.
Three-year-old Rehaan was brought in for “crossed eyes.” His parents had just noticed a white reflex in one of his photos. I performed a dilated fundus exam and saw the telltale sign—a chalky white mass with feeder vessels.
It was retinoblastoma. We arranged urgent enucleation, and his life was saved.
His vision may be compromised—but he’s alive to see the world with his remaining eye.
The Lesson Learned
A white reflex in a child is an ocular emergency. Never ignore leukocoria—it could be a life at stake.
