GENEYE POD
S02E02: Patient Selection and Optimisation - Presbyopia Correction at the Time of Cataract Surgery
This is the second episode of a 7-part series on presbyopia correction at the time of cataract surgery. This podcast series forms part of a GENEYE digital course that has been developed by Dr Jacqueline Beltz for Advanced Ophthalmology Trainees in Victoria, Australia. The full course is available at geneye.org.au under online training.
If I could give you one piece of advice when it comes to this topic, it would be to not use presbyopia correcting IOLs for the wrong patient or the wrong eye. It turns out that is simple but not easy. We can cause a lot of problems with these technologies, and the last thing that we want to cause is dissatisfaction for our patients. That said, we do have good options and when we match outcomes to expectations patients are thrilled!
In Episode 2, Dr Jacqueline Beltz and Dr Georgia Cleary discuss how to determine the “right” patients and the “right” eyes for presbyopia correction. Georgia is a cornea cataract and refractive specialist in Melbourne as well as a consultant on the Corneal Unit at RVEEH. Georgia has a ph.D in cataract surgery and IOL design. She’s the perfect person to discuss this topic with.
