Fish oil and Dry Eye. The research mistake we ALMOST made.
This month inside the Confident Clinician we expanded our database to include content on eye health. We provided our members with content on cataracts, dry dye, glaucoma, AMD and conjunctivitis, and included practice resources such as nutrition protocols, patient handouts and referral letters.
We also called out in this episode a free webinar we are offering our community (including you) on clinical burnout. We're providing registrants a self assessment (or the tools to assess your patients properly) and 3 key takeaways to improve your own burnout in your practice. You can register for the event here.
This podcast on fish oil and dry eye called out a specific challenge we have in research on integrative medicine, and highlights why the INQUIRY method of research actually gives us the most accurate translation from research to practice.
We highlight that if fish oil is added to standard care (eye drops) we may not fully understand the impact and that there are specific populations that are going to benefit from fish oil based on the underlying cause of their dry eye. We give you guidelines of how to use fish oil for your dry eye patients, and where we hope the research is going on this topic!
