Eyes On Tomorrow

Scleral contact lens practitioners to the rescue! with Brian Tompkins


Listen Later

You may be surprised to learn how many corneal conditions can be treated with sclerals! Brian Tompkins, one of the Godfathers of scleral contact lens practice, shares with us his passion for treating complex corneal pathology and restoring vision in patients with advanced keratoconus, corneal ectasias and a host of other ocular surface conditions.

Brian also shares his top tips for setting up a scleral contact lens practice and which new scleral fitting technologies to consider.

And no conversation with Brian would be complete without talking about his unique presentation style, combining theatrics and education, an approach Brian describes as “Edutainment”!
