1 expert are featured in this series.

Explores decision-making for patients with both cataracts and glaucoma, illustrating when to combine or stage surgical and pharmacologic interventions to enhance vision and reduce treatment burden.

This series provides a practical, case-based approach to glaucoma management designed to strengthen clinical confidence and impact in optometric practice. Through detailed patient scenarios, clinicians explore diagnostic challenges, treatment planning, and monitoring strategies that reflect real-world decision-making in glaucoma care.

Each discussion highlights the role of key diagnostic tools such as OCT imaging, visual field testing, and corneal hysteresis, while emphasizing how to individualize therapy based on disease severity, ocular history, and comorbid conditions. Attendees gain insight into balancing efficacy, safety, and patient comfort when selecting medical, procedural, or combination interventions.

By focusing on real-world clinical reasoning, the series encourages optometrists to approach glaucoma as a dynamic, evolving condition that requires continuous reassessment. The sessions reinforce the value of evidence-based treatment, multidisciplinary collaboration, and patient education in achieving long-term visual outcomes.
