Eye Doc Education 3.0!

This evening the doctors of SkyVision Centers will be hosting their 3rd educational seminar for local eye doctors. The first two seminars were rousing successes and we expect nothing less tonight. Each session has included two talks by either our very own SkyVision docs or invited guests. The topics covered have included the new Tear Osmolarity technology and Cataract Implants for Astigmatism among others. In addition, the two meetings have included very interesting dinner fare!

Attendees at 1.0 were treated to an Italian feast with accompanying Italian wines, while 2.0 featured artisinal pizza and Brew Kettle beer brewed especially for the meeting!

Tonight the speakers will be Dr. Darrell White and Dr. Scott Schlegel. Dr. White will introduce the concept of "service lines" in the development of protocols to diagnose, treat, and follow specific diseases in "Glaucoma Protocol Development I". Dr. Schlegel will be tackling the subject of introducing a patient with cataracts to the choices they will face when then are trying to decide what type of Intra-Ocular lens to use for their surgery.

What about dinner? Well, tonight we will be serving Mexican! Their will be a fajita bar with all of the fixin's, traditional Mexican cookies, and of course something interesting to wash it all down! We are all looking forward to seeing our friends in the eye care community as we gather to improve our collective understanding of how best to treat our patients.

Skyvision Docs Have Another Skyvision EDU Meeting

Skyvision Centers Docs had another Continuing Education meeting for area optometrists.  This is the second meeting in the Continuing Education series called Skyvision EDU.  The local optometrists met at The Surgery Center on Bagley Road in Middleburg Heights.  The Surgery Center, owned and operated by Barb Draves, is one the excellent surgery centers used by Dr. White for his cataract patients. 

Leading off the was our very own Dr. Scott Schlegel with a presentation about the very popular Toric Intraocular Lens implant.  He discussed the protocols used in the post operative period of toric IOL cataract surgery. 

Finishing up the meeting was Dr. Darrell White presenting information on the establishment of a Dry Eye Center of Excellence.  The doctors were thoroughly entertained by Dr. White's weaving of stories and technical information.  

Skyvision EDU #3 is scheduled to be held late this summer with topics TBD as the area docs were asked to submit their topics of interest.   The Skyvision doctors have enjoyed connecting with the other area docs and look forward to the continued interaction via the Skyvision EDU meetings.
