I spent a good deal of time working on my background and lighting to get the best picture of me.
My camera looks across the room to a background that contains a bookcase. I had to move a distracting white pillow to the other side of the couch.
I found that I had to close the blinds and turn on both lights in the room to keep me from having the complexion of a zombie. The artificial light has a “warmer” appeal to it.
I have the camera mounted on top of the monitor so it is about level with the top of my heard. I do not have it on the desk top so it looks up my nose. Also that kind of pose looks threatening sometimes.
The software I use projects my image directly under the camera. This makes it easier to speak TO the camera.
If you are just having a meeting with friends, it probably doesn’t matter what you look like or what’s behind you. However if it is a video interview, it might be worth your while to try to make it look professional.
Could be a simple case of myopia. Get the patient’s glasses updated, and he/she won’t have to sit as close to the screen. Or get him/her a separate webcam that sits further back from the screen.

This would be an unmissable example for people with pareidolia. First thing I saw. You get use to it.

Let’s hope we never have to “ZOOM” proctology exams!

Everyone just leaves their cameras off where I work. Except sometimes the presenter, and then they are only on screen until their slides start.

I get paid to ask questions, not to point out the obvious.
