Course Schedule
Saturday, July 30, 2022
12:30 p.m. - 1:20 p.m.
Perplexing Pupils (78829-NO)
Kelsey Mach
Pupil size and function is something that is typically assessed for all patients at annual eye exams, but when differences in pupil size, shape and reactivity are seen, the underlying etiology of these findings require prompt and correct diagnosis for proper patient care. This lecture will present a review of pupillary function/structure, congenital and acquired pupil conditions, as well as diagnostic tests to assess pupil function in order to give clinicians the confidence to assess and manage common pupillary conditions appropriately.
1:30 p.m. - 2:20 p.m.
Access to Care, A Public Health Perspective (78801-PB)
Tim Fries
In this course we will examine the various definitions of access to care. We will explore how and why optometrists are suited to provide increased access to care. We will also discuss several factors that are leading to an increased demand for care, while exploring the workforce demographics as they currently exist.
2:30 p.m. - 3:20 p.m.
A review and update on Keratoconus (78802-TD)
Aaron Zimmerman
