VIDEO: Dextenza saves time for ophthalmologists, increases efficiency
ORLANDO — In this Healio Video Perspective from Telling It Like It Is, I. Paul Singh, MD, shares how Dextenza can decrease the topical drop burden of steroids and improve efficiency of ophthalmic surgery.
According to Singh, Dextenza (dexamethasone ophthalmic insert 0.4 mg, Ocular Therapeutix) reduces the amount of time ophthalmologists spend on patient education and follow-up, as well as time spent in discussions with insurance companies and pharmacies.
“What we’ve found, and what data has shown us, is that we have much less time spent for our [full-time equivalents] on all those time points with patients when you have Dextenza,” he said.
