8:00pm–9:00pm
Glaucoma Gauntlet: Managing Cases from Diagnosis to Treatment (COPE # 80598-GL)
Mitch Ibach, OD, FAAO
Glaucoma’s chronic progressive nature necessitates utilizing multiple treatments with a goal of buying years of non-progression. Eyecare providers are currently armed with topical medications, drug delivery, laser surgeries, and intraocular surgeries to treat intraocular pressure and ultimately glaucoma. Using patient cases, this lecture will discuss glaucoma diagnostics and selecting the treatment modality. Research will be reviewed with an emphasis on guiding daily practice.
