Learning Objectives

• Understand the potential indications for IOL explantation
• Review common red flag findings for complex cataract cases
• Review the surgical management of proliferative diabetic retinopathy
• Understanding ICL surgery - indications, mechanisms and surgical selection
• Optimising the ocular surface prior to lens based surgery - IRPL, Cationorm and Ikervis - when to use what?

• Detect and manage complications from orthokeratology lenses such as microbial keratitis and corneal staining.
• Identify poor compliance patterns contributing to contact lens-related complications.
• Explain the mechanism of action and ocular applications of IPL in meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD).

• Distinguish between aqueous-deficient and evaporative dry eye to tailor IPL and adjunctive treatments.
• Understand IPL protocols, contraindications, and safe operating parameters in optometric practice.
• Interpret meibography and non-invasive tear break-up time to track IPL treatment efficacy.
• Integrate IPL with other therapies like LipiFlow, cyclosporine, or omega-3 supplementation.
• Manage patient expectations and timeline for improvement with IPL treatment courses.
• Identify and troubleshoot adverse events post-IPL, including hyperpigmentation and transient inflammation.
• Gain hands-on experience using the latest slit lamp and indirect ophthalmoscope models, including optimising illumination techniques, magnification settings, and ergonomics for efficient examinations.
• Understand key features and innovations in diagnostic equipment to enhance clinical workflow, improve patient comfort, and support high-quality imaging and documentation.
