Abstract

THIS INSTRUCTION COURSE INTENDS TO PROVIDE COMPREHENSIVE OPHTHALMOLOGISTS THE KNOWLEDGE TO ADD LASER PHOTOCOAGULATION INTO THEIR ARMAMENTARIUM. OVERBURDEN OF DIABETES AND OTHER TREATABLE RETINAL DISEASES HAS AMPLIFIED THE NEED FOR SPECIALISTS WHO CAN TREAT MEDICAL RETINA DISORDERS. DUE TO THE SCARCITY OF RETINA SPECIALISTS IN INDIA, MANY CENTRES WHICH HAVE LASER MACHINES ARE NOT BEING PUT TO USE BECAUSE OF LACK OF TRAINING. THE AVAILABILITY OF USER FRIENDLY DIAGNOSTIC INSTRUMENTS LIKE INDIRECT OPHTHALMOSCOPY,FUNDUS CAMERA, FFA AND OCT IT HAS BECOME REALLY EASY TO DIAGNOSE AND TREAT THESE DISEASES. THIS COURSE WILL TARGET THE GENERAL OPHTHALMOLOGIST AND YOUNG SURGEONS ON HOW TO PROCEED WITH LASER AND ALL THE TIPS AND TRICKS WILL BE SHARED BY THE EXPERIENCED INSTRUCTORS SO THAT THEY MAY COME OUT OF THIS COURSE WITH CONFIDENCE TO DO LASERS SAFELY AND SHORTEN THE LEARNING CURVE.
