General Information

DescriptionThis activity focuses on clinical use and medical issues important to the constantly evolving practice of ophthalmology, with a specific concentration on the most advanced medical and surgical treatment options within glaucoma, retina, anterior segment, and refractive surgery. Expert faculty will present the latest developments in the management of ocular conditions through a combination of didactic and highly interactive discussion sessions. Ample time will be reserved to pursue case studies with registrants.Workshop and didactic lecture time has also been devoted to the evolution of ophthalmology in the business practice setting. Financial benchmarking, coding and reimbursement, office management and budget analysis issued will be addressed amongst the group and on a one-to-one basis.

WorkshopsNon-Invasive Facial Rejuvenation Workshop: Baltimore and VailWilmer Eye Institute physicians, Drs. Michael Grant and Shannath Merbs, will conduct patient treatment demonstrations, using botulinum toxin for both therapeutic and cosmetic uses.

Billing Workshop: VailThis seminar is comprised of lectures and a hands-on workshop highlighting recently updated changes in coding, documentation and reimbursement. This series of learning activities will include consultation and new technology coding. Experts will be available to meet with physicians in a one-on-one setting.

Socio-Economic Session (MSEPS): BaltimoreA socio-economic session in cooperation with The Maryland Society of Eye Physicians and Surgeons will focus on legal and regulatory issues, residency training programs, the “Pay-for-Performance” policy and several other areas of interest specifically tailored for the practicing ophthalmologist.

Practice Management: VailJames Rienzo, a Senior Business Advisor with the Eye Care Business Advisory Group of Allergan, Inc. and consultant for the BSM Consulting Group, provides advice to medical practices, physician networks, ambulatory surgery centers, teaching institutions, and health maintenance organizations throughout the US. His areas of expertise include marketing, ASC development, practice efficiency, market analysis, and strategic planning.

Financial Seminar: BaltimoreJohn and Traudy Grande, CFP’s, long-time lecturers at the Current Concepts seminars, authors of Ophthalmology Times’ “Money Matters” column, and financial advisors to ophthalmologists across the nation, will be presenting (case studies included) on Thursday December 6 from 12:15 - 1:00 p.m. during lunch. This is a complimentary session for all attendees.

Financial Seminar: VailJohn and Traudy Grande, CFP’s, long-time lecturers at the Current Concepts seminars, authors of Ophthalmology Times’ “Money Matters” column, and financial advisors to ophthalmologists across the nation, will be presenting (case studies included) on Sunday, March 10 from 5:30 - 7:00 p.m. This is a complimentary session for all attendees.In addition to this powerful seminar, all Current Concepts’ attendees are invited to schedule a personal, no obligation financial consultation to address individual concerns and goals in the areas of investment planning, estate preservation, tax and retirement planning. To arrange for a meeting, please call (800) 722-1258.

LASIK Evaluation Workshop: BaltimorePre-operative evaluation of LASIK patients to minimize complications and to optimize post-operative results.

Visual Rehabilitation: Therapeutic and Cosmetic Contact Lenses Session: BaltimoreAn overview with case presentations of medically

necessary contact lens designs. With welcomed audience participation we will discuss, with slide presentations and hands-on opportunities of materials used, the design of contact lenses for keratoconus, post-penetrating keratoplasty, scarred corneas, and severe ocular surface disease patients. Included will be designs from 8.0mm to over 20mm rigid lenses, corneal, intralimbal, semi-scleral and full sclera lenses, as well as hybrid contact lenses.

OCT Workshop: Baltimore and VailThe availability of spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) devices holds promise for the diagnosis and management of glaucoma. While the improved resolution SD-OCT may result in earlier detection of disease or its progression, there are as yet no sufficiently long-term studies of the role of SD-OCT in glaucoma. We have evaluated three SD-OCT machines in both research and clinical settings and will summarize our experience thus far.

HRT Workshop: Baltimore and VailThere are now several instruments that produce high-resolution images of the optic nerve. The Heidelberg Retina Tomography (HRT) captures and compiles serial slices of the optic nerve, producing a final image that lets you measure the optic disc and the height of the vitreoretinal interface. This workshop will examine the role of optic disc imaging and other technological advances in the management of glaucoma.

Corneal Computer Analysis Workshop: VailThis workshop will describe different instruments and approaches to corneal modeling. Different applications of these modeling instruments will be discussed. Clinical approaches and diagnostic criteria will be presented in case format.

Diagnostics and Patient Evaluations for Refractive Surgery Seminar: VailThis seminar will provide a review of pre-operative corneal imaging and surgical planning to ensure positive surgical outcomes in refractive surgery.
