Richie Kahn, a rare ophthalmic disease patient and co-founder and principal of Canary Advisors, recaps his article—“Patients on Reddit”—from the March/April issue of Glaucoma Today. In this article, Kahn discusses the usefulness of the forum-style social media platform Reddit for allowing patients to connect, share stories, and ask questions. While the platform facilitates connection and support, the credibility of the information shared may be lacking.
