In part two of Healio’s Lost Art of Refraction miniseries, Cynthia Matossian, MD, FACS, and Arun C. Gulani, MD, discuss the role of refraction in a busy ophthalmology practice.
Gulani explains why he believes in refracting every patient he treats himself, regardless of technological innovations or patient circumstances.
“I tell doctors who train with me ... ‘even if you bring me a patient who has a dagger stuck in their eyeball, I want a one-page report why you could not refract them,’” he said. “You cannot bring me a patient that I will not refract and show you an endpoint. And only then do you become a marvelous surgeon because ... that refraction makes you accountable.”
