“Dr. Glaucomflecken” is the alter ego of Dr. Will Flanary. Flanary created the persona in the wake of a health emergency in an effort to tell painfully specific ophthalmology jokes and to cope with his own health challenges via social media. Since then, Dr. Glaucomflecken has evolved to given speaking engagements that incorporate satirical commentary of the U.S. healthcare system, academic publishing, and the interpersonal conflicts that are pervasive in the American medical system. He has become a YouTube sensation and travels across the U.S., bringing comedic relief to a stressed healthcare system.
