AAO Retina Subspecialty Day Highlights from Dr. Darius Moshfeghi
Dr. Darius Moshfeghi shares his key take-aways from the two retina subspecialty day sessions at this year's AAO meeting in New Orleans. Interviewed by Dr. John Kitchens, Associate Retina Editor for OphthalmologyWeb, the two have a lively discussion about the hot topics presented at the meeting. These include: anti-VEGF treatment strategies, monitoring retinal diseases with angiography and Fourier-domain OCT, the use of topical dorzolamide for juvenile retinoschisis and other indications. Increased rates of endophthalmitis with 25g vitrectomy, and the controversy over Genentech's limiting of Avastin's availability for retina specialists.
