Activity Outline
Join us for an engaging Chat & Sip CPD session with Dr Cameron McLintock as he explores the latest evidence, innovations and clinical considerations in modern cataract and refractive surgery.
Cataract and refractive surgery continue to evolve rapidly, with advances in intraocular lens technology, surgical techniques and patient expectations creating new opportunities — and challenges — for clinicians. Understanding the evidence behind these developments is essential for providing informed advice, selecting appropriate patients and supporting optimal visual outcomes.
This practical, clinically focused session will explore key considerations in cataract and refractive surgery, including patient selection, pre-operative assessment, lens technologies, managing expectations and the role of optometrists in referral pathways and ongoing co-management.
Designed to be interactive and conversational, this session will provide valuable clinical insights and practical pearls that can be applied directly in optometric practice.
Grab a drink, bring your questions, and join us for a relaxed yet highly valuable learning experience with Dr Cameron McLintock.
