Abstract
AS REFRACTIVE SURGEONS, WE ARE OFTEN PLAGUED WITH UNREALISTIC PATIENT EXPECTATIONS. WITH INCREASINGLY DEMANDING PATIENT PROFILES, IT MAY BE WORTHWHILE TO INCORPORATE COMMONLY OVERLOOKED FACTORS IN BUILDING EXEMPLARY SURGICAL OUTCOMES – THESE INCLUDE ORTHOPTICS ASSESSMENT TO DIAGNOSE UNDERLYING AND FREQUENTLY MISSED BINOCULAR VISION DISORDERS THAT MAY GET UNMASKED POST-OPERATIVELY; AN UNDERSTANDING OF THE INTERPLAY OF OPTICAL ABERRATIONS AND HOW TO PRESERVE OR ENHANCE THE BALANCE BETWEEN THEM; USING A VALIDATED MODEL FOR EVALUATION OF PATIENT PROFILES FOR IMPROVED SURGICAL PLANNING AND COUNSELLING; SUPERIOR APPROACHES FOR PREVENTION AND MANAGEMENT OF POST-OPERATIVE OCCURRENCES SUCH AS PAIN, CORNEAL HAZE, DRY EYE AND THE DREADED ECTASIA, ALL OF WHICH MANDATE A MORE STREAMLINED APPROACH. IN THIS COURSE, WE BRIEF THE AUDIENCE ON A COMPREHENSIVE PRE- AND POST-OPERATIVE ASSESSMENT AND TREATMENT OF THE UNHAPPY REFRACTIVE PATIENT TO GENERATE SUPERIOR OUTCOMES AND ENHANCE PATIENT SATISFACTION.
