WAIT... AM I GOING BLIND? "Irene, If things continue, you'll have vision loss." "I thought I was here to get a cleaning... I mean, new glasses!" After a routine eye exam, I left with more than just a new prescription; I walked out with a moment of clarity and panic. While I was distracted wondering how much my insurance would cover for new sunglasses, the optometrist said something that stopped me cold: "Your eyes are 200% worse this year than they were last year." It wasn't vague. It wasn't sugar-coated. It was direct, backed by a scan, and paired with a clear treatment plan. If I didn't follow through with the exercises, medical devices, and recommendations, I could face long-term vision loss. Simple. Clear. Urgent. And it hit me: this is exactly what patients need from us in the dental chair, clarity without judgment, and a transparent, actionable path forward. In this episode of Op Talk, Vic and I explore how that one appointment reshaped the way I approach communication and education in my operatory. We often expect compliance, but fail to deliver the kind of information that actually empowers patients to act. If they don't understand the problem, they won't prioritize the solution.

This is a debate concerning the need to market medical services in the field of ophthalmology and how to select the best tools for your needs. Europe has different regulations regarding medical marketing, but proactivity, especially in social media, without doubths provides more informed and interested patients. Cataract and refractive surgery mostly belong to the premium eye services, which complicates the marketing approach. Moreover there are significant differences between academic, non-academic public and private services. The interview will include the position of key opinion leaders with differing backgrounds, their approaches, special considerations and way to success.

Fuchs Dystrophy is an important condition to be aware before operating on any patient. Cataract surgery, in particular, can cause someone with otherwise asymptomatic Fuchs to develop debilitating corneal edema. Then again, not everyone with Fuchs Dystrophy is destined to develop corneal swelling. So how do we determine which patients are at increased risk of corneal decompensation? How do we know which Fuchs patients warrant combined cataract surgery and endothelial keratoplasty? And as an alternative to corneal transplantation, how do procedures such as DSO or potentially even endothelial cell injection, factor into our treatment of the condition?

It Happened To Me: A Rare Disease and Medical Challenges Podcast
In this inspiring episode, we're exploring the powerful intersection of music and accessibility with three incredible guests: Dr. Bradley Black, a world-renowned pediatric ophthalmologist and founder of the Vision Through Music program, Makayla, a passionate young musician and student in the program, and Maykaya's mother Joann. Dr. Bradley Black (he/him) practiced pediatric ophthalmology and strabismus in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. He is past president of the American Association for Pediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus (AAPOS) and the Louisiana Academy of Eye Physicians and Surgeons (LAEPS). He has served on the boards of directors of AAPOS, the Children's Eye Foundation, the Smith-Kettlewell Eye Research Institute, and LAEPS. He received the Honor Award, Senior Honor Award, and the Lifetime Achievement Award from AAPOS and the Achievement Award, Secretariat Award, and the Outstanding Advocate Award from the American Academy of Ophthalmology. He was elected to the American Ophthalmological Society. In 2024, he received the Parks Silver Medal, the highest honor awarded by AAPOS and CEF-AAPOS. Dr. Black is active in international ophthalmology. He served on the Orbis International Cybersight Medical Advisory Board and has performed and taught pediatric eye surgery in more than thirty countries. One of his greatest professional achievements to date is founding the Vision Through Music program of the Children's Eye Foundation, which seeks to increase the number of music teachers who work with blind and partially sighted children nationwide. He and his wife, Cindy, have two children and two grandchildren. In his leisure time, you can often find Dr. Black sailing the Gulf of Mexico on his thirty-five-foot sloop. Makayla Alger (she/her) is a passionate student of the Children's Eye Foundation's Vision Through Music Program (VTM). From an early age, she found joy in singing and playing on her sister's keyboard. She is currently learning violin and will soon begin voice lessons through the VTM program. Makayla lives with a mutation to the TUBB4B gene, which has led to degenerative vision and bilateral sensorineural hearing loss. Over time, she has lost night vision, experienced a decrease in peripheral vision, and developed nystagmus. Her mother, Joann, vividly remembers taking Makayla to a pediatric ophthalmologist, who determined she would need glasses for life. Initially overwhelmed and unsure whether her young daughter would keep them on, Joann recalls when Makayla looked up at her parents and with a soft voice appreciatively said, “thank you.” From that moment, she never took her glasses off. Joann says the family has gotten creative to make things more accessible at home. Beyond her love of music, Makayla is also the author of “The Way I See It”, a story following Elena, a visually and hearing-impaired red fox who navigates Vermont's scenic trails using her heightened senses. Along her journey, Elena meets many woodland creatures and teaches them important lessons about awareness, kindness, and understanding. Makayla and her mom Joann hope to raise awareness about TUBB4B genetic testing, as well as encourage more research into its progression and ultimately a cure. Whether you're a parent, educator, healthcare provider, or music lover, this conversation will show you just how transformative inclusive programming can be.

Let's get one thing out of the way: I'm not mad you called me at 2 a.m. about an eye. Really, I'm not. But also… were they just missing their glasses? This week, I'm tackling everything that drives ophthalmologists crazy—and how to avoid becoming that story we tell over drinks. From wild consults and missing visual acuity checks to what actually makes an emergency worth a call, I'm handing you the crash course med school never gave you. Plus: a retina saga, a hot muffler, and why I'll never be a 5:30 a.m. gym person. Ever. Takeaways: If you're consulting ophthalmology, at least check vision. Please. I'm begging you. No, we don't expect you to do a full fundus exam—but we do expect you to ask if they've had recent eye surgery. Not all double vision is created equal. Ask if it goes away when they cover one eye. My most frustrating consult? I was called in… to put a patient's glasses on. In the community, y'all are way more self-sufficient than I ever gave you credit for in residency. — To Get Tickets to Wife & Death: You can visit Glaucomflecken.com/live We want to hear YOUR stories (and medical puns)!

The intersection of healthcare management and patient care takes center stage as we welcome Jason Raidbard, Executive Administrator from UChicago's Department of Ophthalmology. Drawing from 22 years of healthcare experience, Jason shares how his journey transformed from pure operations—managing clinics and coordinating staff—to strategic leadership making decisions that shape entire departments.What drives someone to dedicate their career to healthcare administration? For Jason, it began with a deeply personal experience as a child undergoing speech therapy for being tongue-tied. This formative experience revealed both human vulnerability and the profound impact of compassionate care, though his path to healthcare took an unexpected detour through city management studies before a chance encounter with a physician changed everything. The combination of building something meaningful while helping patients transition from sickness to health created the perfect career alignment.Our conversation explores artificial intelligence's evolving role in medicine, where Jason offers a refreshingly balanced perspective. Rather than replacing physicians, current AI applications serve as supportive tools, particularly in radiology and pathology. These technologies provide valuable second opinions while allowing clinicians to maintain more personal connections with patients instead of staring at computer screens during appointments. We also discuss how preventative medicine, staff wellness, and patient accessibility might evolve over the next decade.For physicians running private practices in today's challenging landscape of private equity acquisitions, Jason shares crucial advice about assessing financial viability, defining long-term goals, and consulting trusted experts before making life-changing practice decisions. Whether you're a healthcare professional, administrator, or simply curious about the business of medicine, this episode offers valuable insights into leadership, technological innovation, and the enduring importance of the human touch in healthcare.For more on Jason, visit the website: ophthalmology.uchicago.edu___________________________________________________________________________________________Serious about growing your healthcare practice?

Ever had to wait 45 minutes in the lobby just to wait another 30 in the exam room while imagining your doctor is in the back watching YouTube? In this episode, I break down what's really going on behind the scenes of a chaotic clinic day—and no, it's not lunch. Plus, a very satisfying rant about healthcare corporatization, a strangely relaxing moment involving blood in the eye (someone else's, not mine), and an update on Arkansas doing something good (I know, I'm surprised too). I also ask an important question: is it fair to say sneezing too hard might ruin your vision? Yes. Yes, it is. Takeaways: If I Could Wire My Brain to Every Patient's Brain, I Would. But since that tech doesn't exist, here's a 45-minute explainer on why your wait time is not me scrolling TikTok in a break room. Private Equity, Insurance Companies, and the Slow Death of My Schedule. Who's really making your doctor run behind? Spoiler: it's not your doctor. Arkansas Just Did Something Cool? I'm Shook. Finally, some legislation that takes aim at PBMs. Can we get 49 more of these, please? Sneezing Shouldn't Break Your Eye… But It Might. A 24-year-old. A sudden cloud in his vision. And the diagnosis I didn't expect to make until he mentioned allergy season. Yes, There Was Blood. But Only a Thimbleful. Ophthalmology is rarely a bloody field. But when it is, it gets… weirdly poetic. — To Get Tickets to Wife & Death: You can visit Glaucomflecken.com/live We want to hear YOUR stories (and medical puns)!

Send us a textIn this episode, we are joined by Dr. Manasa Gunturu, a neurology-trained neuro-ophthalmologist and associate professor at the University of Mississippi Medical Center. We discuss the art of detailed history-taking and specialized examination skills, the evaluation of patients with subjective vision loss, double vision, visual field defects, and droopy eyelids – often after they've already seen multiple specialists without answers. We also explore the educational pathways to becoming a neuro-ophthalmologist and the surprising disparity between ophthalmology and neurology training requirements.With only about 600 practicing neuro-ophthalmologists in the United States and some states having just a single specialist, Dr. Gunturu makes a compelling case for why more neurologists should consider this rewarding subspecialty and shares resources for trainees looking to improve their neuro-ophthalmology skills.Dr. Gunturu also serves as Section Editor for the NOVEL NANOS Illustrated Curriculum, and they've been working hard to build a virtual education library!The annual NANOS (North American Neuro-Ophthalmology Society) conference is another fantastic opportunity for students and residents to get more involved in the field of neuro-ophthalmology.

In today's episode, host Dr. Jay Sridhar is joined by Dr. Bobeck Modjtahedi to discuss the American Academy of Ophthalmology's new guidelines on autoimmune retinopathy (AIR), recently published in Ophthalmology Retina. A member of the Academy's task force on AIR and lead author, Dr. Modjtahedi discusses a new diagnostic framework for categorizing AIR as probable, possible, or unlikely based on specific clinical criteria. The guidelines address the challenges in diagnosing this rare condition that mimics inherited retinal diseases, and outline a standardized approach to classification for both clinical practice and research.
