Jaxon performs surgery!

Jaxon did a science project on cataract surgery. He came to Aaron's work to learn about the product that Abbott makes that is used during the surgery. He had fun working in the wet lab and seeing how the surgery is done.

We heard he did a great job presenting his project at the science fair!
