Professor Stephen Klyce PhD has truly innovated so much when it comes to the cornea, kerato-refractive surgery, corneal pathology like keratoconus, and just about every corneal diagnostic device in our clinics. Every day when we look at a topography map of the cornea to plan cataract surgery and astigmatic treatment, we are relying on his large body of work over the past decades. In this podcast we talk about all of these topics plus important pearls that you must know for success in surgery. You will learn so much.

I first met Dr Helen Wu more than 20 years ago when she taught me great surgical pearls for techniques of LASIK (which was very different compared to the amazing technology we have now). She is a truly gifted teacher and professor and has taught refractive surgery to thousands of ophthalmologists over the past few decades. She also has a deep expertise in cataract surgery, corneal transplantation, and uveitis. She has a keen interest in teaching the Refractive Surgery Alliance fellows from around the world. In this podcast she gives great advice that will help you in your career.

Our guest is Dr Malik Kahook who is a professor, surgeon, scientist, and inventor (with 80+ patents in ophthalmology!) at the University of Colorado in Denver. You have likely used one of his devices, the Kahook Dual Blade / KDB Glide to treat glaucoma in your patients and he has influenced other parts of ophthalmology that also impact your practice. His way of thinking is different and refreshing and he strives to foster innovation in ophthalmology via translational research. In this podcast you will learn to much and it will energize you to put in the effort to develop some of your own ideas into future practice.

We have been hearing about in-office (or in-clinic) surgery suites where we can perform intra-ocular surgery such as cataract surgery without having to go to an ASC (ambulatory surgery center). Decades ago we shifted from performing ocular surgery in hospitals to out-patient surgery centers and today that is where we perform most of our cases. Some surgeons are now predicting that we will make another move, from the ASC to an in-office/in-clinic surgery suite. Our podcast guest today is Dr Parag Majmudar who runs the Chicago Cornea practice and is a Professor at Rush University. He has started Syt Surgical to help ophthalmologists start doing OBS: Office Based Surgery. This is something you must learn about.

Sometimes we are so involved in our own practices that we forget about the very important public health aspects of ophthalmology. This includes so much such as determining the best procedures and practices for our patients but also how to critically look at the data. When we see a Medicare cut to certain MIGS procedures, is it any surprise that the other MIGS procedures grow much faster in popularity among surgeons? We explore these topics and much more with our podcast guest Professor Kuldev Singh MD MPH who is a glaucoma specialist at Stanford University. This podcast is a truly fascinating discussion with an incredibly bright leader and thinker who gives keen insight into so many important topics. You will love it.

Nothing beats hard work and determination. And that certainly sums up the stellar career trajectory of Dr Greg Parkhurst. He decided to start a private refractive surgery practice from the ground up and he has built it into a very successful endeavor in San Antonio, Texas, USA. Over the years I have heard his name more and more, and I reached out to him to learn the secrets to his success. He truly has some fantastic advice and it is really great to learn his work ethic and outlook with his practice, his fellowship, his foundation, and his life. Truly inspirational.

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.
