  • UCSF Ophthalmology Advice Guide Authors: Seanna Grob, MD, MAS
    UCSF Ophthalmology Advice Guide Authors: Seanna Grob, MD, MAS and Neeti Parikh, MD Hello! We are excited that you are interested in ophthalmology! It is truly a special field in medicine. From saving someone’s vision after severe eye trauma, to restoring vision with cataract, retina, or cornea surgery, to preserving someone’s vision with glaucoma management and surgery, to reconstructing someone’s periocular area after trauma, burns, or tumor removal, amazing things can happen in ophthalmology. Ophthalmologists love their job and the majority say they would pick this specialty again if they had the choice. An incredible amount of job satisfaction comes from saving someone’s vision! We are here for you in the UCSF Department of Ophthalmology! We have put together this guide to help you through the process. This guide is meant to be very comprehensive. We want to make sure you are aware of all the opportunities and resources you have so that you can plan accordingly. You do not have to do everything we mention! Please feel free to reach out with questions about the specialty, how to get involved, and how to become a great ophthalmology applicant! 1 Medical School A well-rounded application is important for a successful match and any way you can prove to ophthalmology programs that you are dedicated to the field will be helpful to you. As more objective data (such as grades and board scores become less prevalent) other parts of your application will become more important. Various experiences you seek out are not only fun and educational, but will offer exposure to this wonderful field.

KUSSEROW INSPECTOR GENERAL o AI-07 -88-00460 APRIL 1989 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY OBJECTIVES This inspection focuses on issues involving optometrsts ' providing postoperative care to Medicare beneficiares following catat surgery. The overall objectives of the inspection were to detennne: the extent and frequency of postoperative care by optometrsts; the extent of referral arangements between ophthalmologists and optometrsts; the manner of billng by ophthalmologists and optometrsts for cataract surgery when an optometrst provides postoperative car; and whether the practice of optometrsts ' providing cataract surgery postoperative care could lead to abusive referral arrangements, and possible duplicate bilings. BACKGROUND This program inspection was requested by the Administrtor of the Health Care Financing Ad­ ministration (HCFA), who was concerned about the issue of optometrsts ' providing postopera­ tive care to Medicare beneficiares who had cataract surgery. This practice increased after Medicare coverage was expanded by the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1986. This legislation penntted coverage of optometrsts as physicians for any services they ar legally authorized to perform in the State in which they practice. All 50 States permit optometrsts to use diagnostic drgs. Funher, 23 States have passed legislation allowing optometrsts to use and prescribe therapeutic drugs, greatly expanding their scope of practice and ability to treat patients during the postoperative period following cataract surgery. METHODOLOGY Preinspection work included meetings and contacts with the Americ n Academy of Ophthal­ mology, the American Optometrc Association, State licensing boards, Medicare carrers, and HCFA staf.

If you find this book useful, please support this project by buying the printed version at Amazon.com. Here is the link: http://www.rooteyedictionary.com/printversion Timothy Root, M.D. Root Eye Dictionary A "Layman's Explanation" of the eye and common eye problems Written and Illustrated by Timothy Root, M.D. www.RootEyeDictionary.com 1 Contents: Introduction The Dictionary, A-Z Extra Stuff - Abbreviations - Other Books by Dr. Root 2 Intro 3 INTRODUCTION Greetings and welcome to the Root Eye Dictionary. Inside these pages you will find an alphabetical listing of common eye diseases and visual problems I treat on a day-to-day basis. Ophthalmology is a field riddled with confusing concepts and nomenclature, so I figured a layman's dictionary might help you "decode" the medical jargon. Hopefully, this explanatory approach helps remove some of the mystery behind eye disease. With this book, you should be able to: 1. Look up any eye "diagnosis" you or your family has been given 2. Know why you are getting eye "tests" 3. Look up the ingredients of your eye drops. As you read any particular topic, you will see that some words are underlined. An underlined word means that I've written another entry for that particular topic. You can flip to that section if you'd like further explanation, though I've attempted to make each entry understandable on its own merit. I'm hoping this approach allows you to learn more about the eye without getting bogged down with minutia ..

  • Anesthesia Management of Ophthalmic Surgery in Geriatric Patients
    Anesthesia Management of Ophthalmic Surgery in Geriatric Patients Zhuang T. Fang, M.D., MSPH Clinical Professor Associate Director, the Jules Stein Eye Institute Operating Rooms Department of Anesthesiology and Perioperative Medicine David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA 1. Overview of Ophthalmic Surgery and Anesthesia Ophthalmic surgery is currently the most common procedure among the elderly population in the United States, primarily performed in ambulatory surgical centers. The outcome of ophthalmic surgery is usually good because the eye disorders requiring surgery are generally not life threatening. In fact, cataract surgery can improve an elderly patient’s vision dramatically leading to improvement in their quality of life and prevention of injury due to falls. There have been significant changes in many of the ophthalmic procedures, especially cataract and retinal procedures. Revolutionary improvements of the technology making these procedures easier and taking less time to perform have rendered them safer with fewer complications from the anesthesiology standpoint. Ophthalmic surgery consists of cataract, glaucoma, and retinal surgery, including vitrectomy (20, 23, 25, or 27 gauge) and scleral buckle for not only retinal detachment, but also for diabetic retinopathy, epiretinal membrane and macular hole surgery, and radioactive plaque implantation for choroidal melanoma. Other procedures include strabismus repair, corneal transplantation, and plastic surgery, including blepharoplasty (ptosis repair), dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR)

  • What Is the Difference Between an Ophthalmologist, Optometrist And
    Difference between an Ophthalmologist, Optometrist and Optician Your sight depends on seeing the right eye doctor at the right time. When it's time to "get your eyes checked," make sure you are seeing the right eye care professional for your needs. Ophthalmologists, optometrists and opticians each play an important role in providing eye care to consumers. But the levels of training and expertise are quite different for each type of provider. Here's a quick look at the three types of eye care providers: Ophthalmologist An ophthalmologist — Eye M.D. — is a medical or osteopathic doctor who specializes in eye and vision care. Ophthalmologists differ from optometrists and opticians in their levels of training and in what they can diagnose and treat. As a medical doctor who has completed college and at least eight years of additional medical training, an ophthalmologist is licensed to practice medicine and surgery. An ophthalmologist diagnoses and treats all eye diseases, performs eye surgery and prescribes and fits eyeglasses and contact lenses to correct vision problems. Many ophthalmologists are also involved in scientific research on the causes and cures for eye diseases and vision disorders. SUBSPECIALISTS: ADDITIONAL KNOWLEDGE AND TRAINING FOR SPECIFIC EYE NEEDS While ophthalmologists are trained to care for all eye problems and conditions, some Eye M.D.s specialize in a specific area of medical or surgical eye care. This person is called a subspecialist. He or she usually completes one or two years of additional, more in-depth training called a fellowship in one of the main subspecialty areas such as glaucoma, retina, cornea, pediatrics, neurology and plastic surgery, as well as others.
