Our guest today is Dr Nikolina Budimlija who runs a dedicated Ocular Surface Disease Clinic and has a deep expertise in the subject. She is a member of the Tear Film & Ocular Surface Society (TFOS), European Society of Cornea & Ocular Surface Disease Specialists (EuCornea), and the ESCRS. She offers some great practical advice for ophthalmologists like me who love eye surgery but have less passion for ocular surface disorders such as dry eye syndrome and tear insufficiency. She offers some great advice that will help you in your own clinic. We feature a new podcast every week on Sundays and they are uploaded to all major podcast services (click links here: Apple, Google, Spotify) for enjoying as you drive to work or exercise.

Dr. Kenneth Hoffer shares his journey into ophthalmology, starting from his humble beginnings as a high school student with a dream. He overcame financial obstacles and received scholarships to pursue his medical education. Initially interested in heart surgery, he was inspired to become an ophthalmologist after observing a cataract operation. Dr. Hoffer became a pioneer in intraocular lens (IOL) implantation and power calculation, founding the American Intra-Ocular Implant Society (AIOIS) and the Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery. He also played a role in the formation of the European Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery (ESCRS). Dr. Kenneth Hoffer reflects on his experiences as the editor of the Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery (JCRS) and his contributions to the field of ophthalmology. He discusses the challenges of editing the journal and the meticulous process of typesetting and printing. Dr. Hoffer also shares his pride in the journal and its impact on lens implant calculations and surgical techniques. He also discusses his invention of the Hoffer Split Bifocal, the first multifocal intraocular lens, and his mentors who influenced his career.

CHAIRS: Ziad Khoueir and Simonetta Morselli SPEAKERS: Ana Prinz, Verena Prokosch, Julian Garcia-Feijoo and Andrew Tatham Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgery (MIGS) has changed the treatment landscape for glaucoma, offering a safer and less invasive alternative to traditional glaucoma surgeries, focusing on reducing intraocular pressure (IOP) with minimal trauma and faster recovery times. This approach is particularly advantageous for patients undergoing cataract surgery, as it allows both conditions to be addressed simultaneously, reducing the burden of surgery and potentially improving visual outcomes. Join us for new edition of ESCRS eConnect webinar where selected panel of experts will delve into the latest advancements in this field. The session will offer clinical insights on identifying the ideal patient profile, followed by an overview of the complex and ever-changing landscape of contemporary MIGS procedures. The webinar will also provide the latest data on of combining cataract surgery with MIGS procedures, indicating the best treatment options for these cases. Finally, we'll conclude with strategies for managing patients after a failed MIGS procedure.
Chairs: Andreia Rosa and Miltos Balidis Speakers: Renato Ambrosio,Tiago Monteiro,Emilio Torres-Netto, Aylin Kilic Our webinar will address the challenges and complexities of ectatic corneal conditions, focusing on advanced diagnostic and therapeutic strategies.

Our experts will share their experiences in managing post-refractive surgery ectasia, a rare but serious postoperative complication. The session will also cover innovative combined treatments, such as corneal cross-linking with refractive procedures for keratoectasia, and discuss the emerging technique of corneal lenticule transplantation, indicating possible future directions in corneal ectasia management.
Chairs - Marie-José Tassignon and Göran Darius Hildebrand Speakers - Marta Morales, Michael Amon, Ken Nischal and Vladimir Pfeifer Pediatric cataracts continue to be a primary contributor to avoidable childhood blindness globally. If not addressed promptly, these cataracts significantly impair children's visual health, leading to permanent amblyopia. This webinar will provide information on the indications and optimal timing for surgery, delving into the critical factors that influence the decision-making process for timely and effective intervention. The panel of experts will explain the intricacies of biometry in pediatric patients, alongside a detailed look at the various intraocular lens (IOL) implantation options, considering the unique anatomical and developmental needs of young eyes. Lastly, we will delve into the forefront of surgical management and postoperative care strategies, encompassing both standard and intricate cases encountered in our clinical practice.
Chairs: Oliver Findl and Béatrice Cochener-Lamard 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. Webinar Programme Tuesday 21 November 2023 19.30 CET; 18.30 GMT 19.30 - Welcome And Introduction Sheraz Daya, UK, Founder, Chairman and Medical Director, Centre for Sight, London and Artemis Matsou, Greece, Consultant Ophthalmic Surgeon- Cornea Cataract Anterior Segment, Queen Victoria Hospital, East Grinstead. 19.35 - 19.50 How Will New Models Of Ophthalmology Ownership Effect Young Ophthalmologists? - Vincent Qin, Ophthalmologist and Eye Surgeon, Belgium Vincent Qindiscusses how young ophthalmologists envisage their future careers and how they wish to ensure good life work balance and training, research and leadership opportunities. 19.50 - 20.05 The EuroEyes Story - Joern Joergensen, Denmark, CEO, EuroEyes Joern Joergensen discusses how EuroEyes has grown and developed to become one of the leading ophthalmic groups worldwide.
