Diplopia On EnterVR Podcast
James and Manish join EnterVR host Cris Miranda for an hour long podcast.
The topics discussed start with Diplopia updates, the experience of growing up with lazy eye, and the response we have received from eye care professionals and end with a look at the future of VR, geoengineering, and genetic engineering.
It was an absolute blast talking with Cris, I hope you have as much fun listening to it as we did recording it!
