Webinar: What Your Patients Expect and What Their Ocular Surface Demands

Bridging the gap: peri-operative dry eye management in cataract and refractive surgery

This webinar has been funded and organised by Nordic Pharma and will contain promotional information. Intended for Healthcare Professionals only.

Patient expectations for cataract and refractive outcomes have never been higher.¹ Yet up to 55% of patients present with ocular surface disease² — a key but often under-recognised factor that can compromise preoperative measurements, contribute to incorrect IOL selection,^3–5 and drive “20/20 unhappy” postoperative outcomes.^6,7

Join Mr Johnson Neo, Award-winning Consultant Ophthalmic Surgeon (Barts Health NHS Trust, Moorfields Eye Hospital, Clinica London), and Professor Sajjad Ahmad, Consultant Ophthalmic Surgeon at Moorfields Eye Hospital, as they explore how managing ocular surface disease throughout the surgical pathway can help align patient expectations with the outcomes you deliver. The session will also cover management options and real-world insights on optimising the ocular surface as part of the surgical pathway. CPD-relevant content.
