PURPOSE AND INTENDED AUDIENCE
The goal of this CME activity is to update and educate ophthalmologists on new diagnoses and treatments of eye disease and to provide instruction on how to incorporate these treatments into daily clinical practice. It includes descriptions and updates on new vision research that have clinical implications. The target audience includes comprehensive and subspecialist ophthalmologists on the front lines of patient care, whether in private practice or in academic medicine.
EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES
Upon completion of this program, participant learners should be able to:
• Describe the University of Iowa’s contributions to global ophthalmology and apply principles of ethical, sustainable engagement in international eye care.
• Recognize and develop diagnostic and referral strategies for genetic and immune-mediated neuro-ophthalmic disorders.
• Explain factors contributing to limited ophthalmology emergency room and hospital call coverage in the United States and utilize AAO resources to improve preparedness for these responsibilities.
• Describe current and emerging applications of artificial intelligence in AAO programs and ophthalmic education.
• Apply core values to clinical decision-making and integrate values-based approaches to enhance leadership, organizational culture, and team performance.
• Compare and differentiate surgical approaches to trabeculectomy, tube shunts, and minimally invasive glaucoma procedures (including MIGS and bleb-forming techniques).
• Discuss practice patterns and key insights from ophthalmology in a private group practice setting.
