Video audio transcription:
“I’m Dr. Brittany shower at Vision Source Mandan and being an optometrist allows 5 me to help people not only with their eyes but with their overall health I recall one patient that came in for her yearly eye exam and I detected a problem inside her eyes with the optic nerves. Turns out she had increased pressure in her brain that required urgent medical treatment yes I love helping people with their Vision with glasses and contacts but I also have the opportunity to possibly change someone’s life and that’s why I love being an optometrist.”
