Perfecting Co-Management of Glaucoma – Utilizing Development in the Spectrum of Treatment Options
Perfecting Co-Management of Glaucoma – Utilizing Development in the Spectrum of Treatment Options is organized by Physicians' Education Resource, LLC (PER).
Release Date: January 31, 2023
Expiration Date: January 31, 2024.
Description:
To effectively treat patients with glaucoma, there is a need to examine current therapies and distinguish the appropriate uses of each in clinical practice. There are still many questions within the optometry and ophthalmology communities surrounding how to optimize the use of topical treatments and sustained drug delivery systems to treat glaucoma and when to recommend patients for microinvasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS).
This educational program provides clinicians with the knowledge and expertise to appropriately incorporate these therapies into treatment algorithms for patients with glaucoma and to mitigate the occurrence of unfavorable events. Improved collaborative, multidisciplinary care will allow patients with glaucoma to have improved quality of life, leading to continued and optimal clinical benefits.
This educational activity is an archive of the live virtual symposium held on December 17, 2022.
Learning Objectives:
Upon successful completion of this activity, you should be better prepared to:
• Describe clinical factors associated with the selection of traditional agents for glaucoma
• Identify appropriate patients for sustained drug delivery in glaucoma therapy
• Summarize current evidence regarding safety and efficacy of MIGS procedures based on clinical trial data
• Characterize patients who may be appropriate candidates for MIGS.
Additional details will be posted as soon as information is available.
