Glaucoma OCT Interpretation is an online, Section 3 accredited course available at EyeCarePD.com. A game-based approach is applied to learning OCT interpretation. This course covers commonly encountered OCT presentations of glaucoma as seen on standard optic nerve head and retinal nerve fiber layer scan protocols with the purpose of improving interpretation skills using perceptual learning strategies.

COURSE DESCRIPTION

This course provides a comprehensive, clinically focused overview of neurotrophic keratitis. It emphasizes clinical reasoning, understanding the pathophysiology of corneal nerve damage, and identifying prognostic factors. Participants will explore mild to severe presentations, review evidence-based medical and surgical management options, and learn how to prevent long-term complications. By the end of the course, learners will be equipped to manage neurotrophic keratitis across all stages to optimize both visual and anatomical outcomes.
