Description:
The 2nd Annual Peter & Ruth Laibson Endowed Cornea Lecture was delivered by Fasika Woreta, MD of the Wilmer Eye Institute.
With the emergence of new technologies, treatments, and clinical trial results, ophthalmologists need to understand how to incorporate these advances into clinical care. We will discuss latest advances in the management of inherited and acquired ophthalmic diseases and evidence for emerging therapies and screening modalities. Both didactic and case-based educational formats will be utilized to illustrate current trends in the management of complex and routine ophthalmic patients, taking into account diagnostics as well as nonsurgical and surgical treatment.

Objectives:
At the conclusion of this activity, learners will be able to:

• Develop an approach to open globe repair
• Describe options for visual rehabilitation following corneal and lenticular injury
• Describe medical management for traumatic hyphema and surgical indications for anterior chamber washout
• Better apply and understand imaging modalities available in assessing ocular trauma
