Ocular Surgery News and the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center Eye Center have released a resource for ophthalmologists aggregating all articles from the OSN column, “News You Can Use from UPMC Eye Center.” The column represents the clinically relevant state of the art in ophthalmic care summarized and explained by UPMC Eye Center physicians.
“Our physicians have described surgical techniques and medical care with the intent of improving clinical patient care, and enhancing the practice of ophthalmology,” Joel S. Schuman, MD, FACS, OSN Glaucoma Board member and director of UPMC Eye Center, wrote in the introduction. “From injection of mytomycin C instead of pledget application at the time of filtering surgery to tips and tricks for aesthetic ocular surgery, our faculty aim to improve the quality of life for patients and the abilities of clinicians across the board.”
Schuman and his colleagues will add to the column in the coming year on topics ranging from corneal surgery to cataract, glaucoma, retina, oculoplastics, neuro-ophthalmology and pediatric ophthalmology, he said.
The compendium of articles will be available in a supplement to the Feb. 25, 2014 issue of OSN and online at http://www.healio.com/ophthalmology/news/publication-exclusives/news-you-can-use-from-upmc-eye-center. Or, you can click the PDF below:
