ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION
This program was originally presented at the American Academy of Ophthalmology 2019 meeting.
Cataracts are a leading cause of visual impairment, and cataract surgery volume is expected to increase even further as the aging US population grows and life expectancy increases. Successful surgical outcomes are often determined by whether the patient is satisfied with the visual outcome and the entire postoperative experience. The surgeon’s ability to prevent and overcome perioperative challenges, such as surgically included miosis, plays a large role in ensuring optimal results and mitigating patient discomfort, including postoperative pain, inflammation, and serious complications. The desired results of this educational activity are to help clinicians provide better outcomes for their patients, thereby enhancing patient satisfaction following surgery.
