Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Stop Asking Insurance for Permission: The Refractive Mindset
Q: Could you share a few practical pearls for our audience about counseling patients on refractive options beyond LASIK?
Provide a full spectrum education that includes seven potential procedures, frame cost discussions early with clear language like 'a few thousand dollars on top,' and tailor the conversation to the patient's priorities, whether they seek independence from glasses, better distance, or reduced dependence on contacts, while using demonstrations and patient-read reactions to guide the final recommendation.
Vision Through Music
Q: How did you build the connections between APOS, the foundation, and the Academy of Music for the Blind to support the project?
The initiative grew from discussions during the speaker's presidency of the APOS Foundation Advisory Board, leading to collaboration with David Pinto and the Academy of Music for the Blind to establish infrastructure, resources, and the registry.
Vision Through Music
Q: What age would you suggest for introducing music to blind children, and what are practical guidelines for ophthalmologists in conversations with families?
He recommends early exposure, starting with accessible instruments like piano, noting that early musical engagement supports ongoing development and can be a powerful conversation starter with families about improving quality of life.
Vision Through Music
Q: Would you please start by introducing yourself and share one aspect of Vision Through Music that excites you most?
Brad Black describes himself as a retired pediatric ophthalmologist and the founder of Vision Through Music, emphasizing access, teacher registry, and collaboration with the Academy of Music for the Blind as core pillars of the program.
When Sustainability Meets Surgery
Q: What is the most meaningful piece of advice you've been given or would offer someone pursuing oculoplastic as a specialty?
The key guidance is to get comfortable in the operating room across a range of procedures, building hand-eye coordination and familiarity with instruments, so that when encountering new challenges, you can adapt quickly and confidently.
