Eye Dissection Workshop
This workshop is a hands-on dissection that will use real preserved Cow’s eyes to help the attendee better understand the inner workings of the eye. A cow eye is a good specimen to compare to a human eye as many structures are fairly similar, and it’s large size allows for better examination. Attendees will explore the external and internal structures of the cow eye to better understand the principles of how the human eye anatomy contributes to vision.

Contact Lens Considerations for Sports Vision Performance
An important aspect of sports’ performance is being able to react accurately and precisely to its environmental stimuli. Maximizing vision in order to improve hand-eye and limb-eye coordination is key to peak sports performance. From children to adults, contact lens technologies are available for improved ocular health and development, and for optimizing visual correction for sports movement. This presentation will review contact lenses options for those who want to improve sports performance and how vision and movement are linked. Case examples will help illustrate how to prescribe appropriate choices in optics for best outcomes.

Myopia Matters: Managing Risk, Vision Loss and Control
Myopia is not a benign condition. This course will highlight retinal pathology and vision loss associated with high myopia. Low vision rehabilitation strategies to address this vision loss will be covered. While treatment and/or low vision rehabilitation can provide positive outcomes, if we could go back in time, an optimal solution might have been prevention of myopia progression.

TED Talks - An Update on Thyroid Eye Disease
This lecture will outline and describe the current understanding of thyroid eye disease (TED) and its interrelation with Graves’ Disease. It will describe incidence, risk factors, and associated systemic signs, symptoms, and pathophysiology including Rundle’s curve. We will discuss treatment options for TED including the recent FDA approval of Teprotumumab, its clinical trials, study endpoints, and adverse reactions. Masquerading ocular findings that may be early signs of TED will be described as well as lab testing that can help with the early detection of TED will be discussed. Doctors have a knowledge need for this practice gap which means having the knowledge of how to detect, diagnose, and treat TED in an integrated, multidisciplinary method.

Early-Onset Cataracts: When to Consider Systemic Disease and Genetic Testing
This course provides an introduction to genetic testing for causes of early-onset cataracts. Particular focus will be placed on cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX). CTX is a rare autosomal recessive lipid storage disease. If left untreated, patients with this progressive multisystem disorder develop neurologic symptoms and have reduced life expectancy. In early 2025, chenodiol (Ctexli) became the first FDA-approved targeted treatment for CTX. This course will cover the important role of optometrists in the diagnosis of CTX, since early-onset cataracts are among the most common and earliest manifestations of the condition. Useful resources for genetic testing will be shared.

Emerging Technologies in Eyecare: Teleretina and Software
This lecture will focus on TR adoption in primary care settings along with autonomous disease detection solutions. A review of the American Medical Association’s (AMA) Telehealth Adoption Playbook will be discussed and how it can be used to develop best-practices in TR. We explore prevalence and incidence rates of DM and DR, various vendors, and evidence-based outcomes for disease detection and progression risk. Additional discussions center around team expertise requirements, picture archiving and communication systems (PACS), various institutions leveraging TR services, and artificial intelligence/machine learning/deep learning (AI/ML/DL) in order for ODs to better understand risks, benefits, and limitations of this rapidly expanding service.

The Anti-Fatigue Lens Opportunity
Digital eye strain (DES) is becoming more common among today’s single vision patients and to meet that need, lens manufacturers are producing specific lens solutions to help alleviate DES symptoms. Often called anti-fatigue lenses, these lenses incorporate a low powered addition in the lower portion of the lens to help relax the ciliary muscles during near viewing tasks, which in turn can help reduce eye fatigue and/or DES symptoms.
Much confusion surrounds these lenses as they are often referred to as a low powered progressive, or in some instances, are prescribed in place of low powered progressive. These situations can create less than ideal visual comfort for the patient. To correctly apply a solution for DES, the optician must understand the fundamental characteristics of anti-fatigue lenses and how to properly recommend them based on patient symptoms. This presentation will define DES, explain the physiology behind how DES occurs, differentiate DES from presbyopia, discuss appropriate DES lens solutions, and how to correctly apply a solution with proper lens selection.

Pharmacological Miosis and Multifocal Contact Lens Design: An Optical Framework for Clinical Decision-Making in Presbyopia Management
The emergence of pharmacological miosis as an adjunctive strategy for presbyopia management has created new opportunities and challenges for eye care practitioners managing patients with multifocal contact lenses. This course reviews the optical principles underlying simultaneous-vision multifocal contact lens designs and examines how pharmacologically induced changes in pupil diameter influence retinal image formation, depth of focus, and multifocal lens performance. Participants will learn how different multifocal optical architectures interact with miotic therapies and how these interactions can guide clinical lens selection and patient management.

Understanding Migraine-Associated Photophobia: Clinical Recognition, Pathophysiology, and Management Strategies
Migraine affects nearly one billion individuals worldwide and is among the leading causes of disability in adults under age 50. Photophobia is one of the most common and debilitating symptoms associated with migraine, significantly impacting patients' quality of life, productivity, and daily functioning. This course reviews the prevalence and burden of migraine disease, explores the neurophysiological mechanisms underlying photophobia, and examines current evidence regarding light-filtering interventions as a non-pharmacologic management strategy. Attendees will learn how to identify patients affected by migraine-associated light sensitivity and evaluate available therapeutic options.
