In this highly interactive and clinically-based webinar, Dr. Wilson will discuss his current techniques for surgical planning and the technologies he uses in pediatric cataract surgery. This webinar will largely be case-based with surgical videos. These videos will demonstrate all aspects of his cataract care pathway in children including biometry to IOL formulas, his complete surgical procedure, and his standard post-op care of his patients in the first six months after surgery. This talk will define the clinical and surgical pearls that Dr. Wilson has accumulated throughout his career, which he hopes you will consider when treating pediatric cataracts. (Level: All)

During the webinar, we will discuss different treatment options for aphakia. We will review the various treatments from the simplest to the most complex ones. Attendees will gain pearls of knowledge and tips for producing successful outcomes. (Level: All)

During this live webinar, we will discuss the current diagnostic tools and treatment modalities of polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV) and the management of various complications associated with myopia. The webinar will highlight the prevalence of PCV, a sub-type of neovascular age-related macular degeneration, in the Asian populations. Attendees will also gain further insights into retinal detachment, myopic traction maculopathy, and myopic choroidal neovascularization. (Level: Intermediate)

During this live surgical demonstration, we will discuss the techniques used to surgically manage a dislocated IOL. This will include safe and reproducible vitrectomy results, removal of dislocated IOL, and scleral wall fixation of a new IOL. In particular, the gortex suture method of scleral fixation will be demonstrated, with attention to avoiding complications. (Level: Advanced)

In this webinar, we will discuss the critical steps in the sterile processing of ophthalmic surgical instruments. Considerations will be given to cleaning/decontamination, sterilization, storage, and quality control with special attention to the unique qualities of ophthalmic instruments and the challenges that come with it. Questions received from registration and during the webinar will also be discussed. (Level: All)

During this live webinar, we will discuss the nonsurgical and surgical management of the spectrum pediatric eye emergencies. We will review the current guidelines for different types of eyelid lacerations, hyphemas, and pediatric open globe injuries. We will discuss long-term sequelae of trauma including traumatic cataracts, glaucoma, corneal scarring, and retinal detachment in the setting of amblyopia development. Finally, we will learn how to counsel parents to best avoid ocular trauma in our patients. (Level: Beginner and Intermediate)

During this live webinar, we will discuss the causes and pathogenesis of various types of acquired esotropia. Complete evaluation protocol and management guidelines will be discussed. We will also highlight red flag signs to watch out for in acquired esotropia. (Level: Intermediate)

During this live webinar, we will detail the most common underlying etiologies and key clinical features of neovascular glaucoma (NVG). Neovascular glaucoma (NVG) is a major cause of ocular morbidity across the globe. There will be in-depth discussions on management strategies and counseling tips for patients with NVG.

The prevalence of myopia in premature children with or without treatment for ROP is significantly higher than in full-term children. This lecture will explore the dynamics of myopia development in both treated and untreated cases of ROP. This lecture will elaborate on myopia development and evaluate the associated factors in preterm infants treated with anti-VEGF (Intravitreal Bevacizumab) or laser photocoagulation. The latest research findings, clinical insights, and potential strategies to mitigate myopia in the context of ROP will be discussed. (Level: Intermediate)

Patients will present with visual symptoms and seemingly “normal” eye exams. This webinar will describe an organized, succinct approach to these difficult patients. A variety of neuro-ophthalmic conditions will be discussed in addition to non-organic visual loss. (Level: Beginner and Intermediate)

During this live webinar, we will discuss all aspects of goniotomy from case selection, to informed consent, to set-up, to post-op, and beyond. We will also examine various alternatives. Videos will be incorporated into this session with ample time for questions. (Level: All)

During this live webinar, we will discuss the management of entropion and ectropion. At the conclusion of this lecture, attendees should be able to: (1) identify the anatomic factors that cause both entropion and ectropion, (2) understand the clinical features caused by entropion and ectropion, and (3) select the most appropriate surgical treatment for entropion or ectropion based on the clinical situation.
