2021 ASCRS Annual Meeting

About this Session

Session Moderators: Sophie X. Deng, MD, PhD, ABO, Bennie H. Jeng, MD, ABO

Both corneal specialists and comprehensive ophthalmologists could encounter challenges in managing common corneal diseases due to varied clinical factors. Conflicting results on the outcome of treatments make it more difficulty for the treating clinician to formulate the best management plan. In this Symposium, the invited faculty will share their experience and provide evidence-based guidelines regarding cataract surgery in the presence of corneal pathologies, and challenges in the management of corneal and anterior segment diseases.
