About the Program


Discover the power of collaborative care and unlock new possibilities for your patients and your practice. Adding this service to your practice requires no investment in equipment and can provide a new revenue stream. This symposium was designed to give you the pearls and information for immediate implementation. It will offer a wealth of knowledge and insights into how the care you already provide, including  presbyopia, glaucoma, dry eye, and myopia management, can be applied to refractive options for your patients. It will also explore the legal aspects of collaborative care to ensure patient well-being while safeguarding your practice.

Join us for an unparalleled learning experience with world renowned faculty experts to gain insights into patient selection, corneal refractive surgery, cataract surgery techniques, for refractive lens exchange, phakic IOLs, proactive dry eye treatment, myopia management's role in refractive surgery, minimally invasive glaucoma surgeries (MIGS), presbyopia treatment options, keratoconus care advancements, and more.

Don't miss out on this opportunity to sharpen your skills and stay ahead in the evolving refractive landscape. Join us at the Collaborative Care Symposium to elevate your clinical and co-management mindset.
