The Advances in Ophthalmology Dinner Lecture Series consists of multidisciplinary meetings hosted by UTHealth Houston Ophthalmology. These dinners gather local experts in ophthalmology and optometry, for presentations from subject matter experts, followed by discussion.

Each meeting will feature lectures from two to three physicians, and will be formatted to allow sufficient time for a question-and-answer period in order to provide an opportunity to explore the presented subject matter thoroughly. We expect the meetings to be highly interactive and full of scientific and clinical advances presented by local thought leaders in this discipline.

Learning Objectives:

  1. Review long term ocular conditions associated with prematurity and retinopathy of prematurity.
  2. Review the latest recommendations for treatment of retinopathy of prematurity and its complications.
  3. Explore the latest advances in amblyopia therapy.
  4. Review the definition of amblyopia and its subtypes.
  5. Identify the drivers of the myopia epidemic and recognize the health risks associated with high myopia.
  6. Review evidence-based practices and future innovations in the management of myopia.
  7. Learn when to refer to a pediatric ophthalmologist or optometrist for treatment.

Target Audience: This activity is designed to meet the educational needs of clinicians including pediatricians, pediatric specialists, optometrists, and ophthalmologists.
