Dry Eye Disease is a highly prevalent condition that can have a major impact on cataract patients, both pre- and post-operatively.

For optimal surgical outcomes, it is critically important that the condition is addressed properly before a procedure takes place. As an OD co-managing these cases, it is up to you to make sure this happens.

In this exciting case-based webinar, Mile Brujic, OD, FAAO and Ranjan Malhotra, MD, FACS share clinical pearls with you and discuss:

* How to identify and work-up dry eye patients pre-operatively, including the latest diagnostic tests at your disposal

* What steps you can take as the co-managing OD to optimize the ocular surface preoperatively

* How ODs and OMDs can work collaboratively to ensure optimal patient outcomes

A Q&A with Drs. Brujic and Malhotra follows the talk
