Discussions Focus on Three Important Clinical Topics

Many episodes of the YES Connect Webinar series, which is designed with young eye surgeons in mind but relevant to ophthalmologists at any career stage, have focused on non-clinical, career-enhancing topics. The YES Clinical Committee more recently has begun to work in important clinical discussions.
