Speakers: Filomena Ribeiro, Francesco Carones, Orkun Müftüoglu, and Ramin Khoramnia
Recent advancements in intraocular lens (IOL) technology have been transformative, introducing a diverse array of IOL options into the global market. While certain designs have not been widely adopted in practice, numerous others have already found their place in everyday clinical work. Our forthcoming webinar will delve into the latest developments in premium IOLs, offering a comprehensive analysis of their clinical performance, including both their strengths and their shortcomings. Our panel of experts will share their experiences with the latest premium IOL configurations, including extended depth of focus (EDOF), monofocal plus, and Multifocal add-on lenses, and will discuss prospective evolutions and potential paradigm shifts in this area of ocular surgery.
Who Owns Ophthalmology?
In recent years, there has been growing pressure on ophthalmologists in both public and private practice to cede some independence to private investors who wish to include ophthalmology in their healthcare portfolios.
The ESCRS has always valued the support of industry in assisting us in delivering premium services to our patients. It is our belief this should be done in the spirit of collaboration. We also believe ophthalmology should be physician-led, and that we must retain control of our practices both in the public and private environments.
In this webinar we will discuss how ophthalmologists can continue to retain their independence while continuing to engage with industry in a constructive and positive manner.
