On Thanksgiving morning 2024, ophthalmology resident Dr. Neda Dastgheyb happened to be at the closed UC Davis Eye Institute when Maryam Paras arrived seeking emergency help for her father, Abdul Rauf. Rauf was rushed to the ER and treated for phacomorphic glaucoma—a severe condition caused by a swollen cataract. The sight-saving care completely restored Rauf's vision to 20/20, allowing him to return to driving for Uber.
