About this Course
All of us have read chapters on uveitis during our ophthalmology training and heard wonderful talks on the subject in meetings and conferences. Yet, while sitting across the patient in the clinic, we feel baffled by the mix of clinical signs and symptoms that the patient presents to us. Often, the end result is a list of all-too-familiar investigations followed by a prescription of medications that hardly do justice to the vast information that is available in the field.
What You Will Learn:
The LVPEI Uveitis Series will act as a bridge between your knowledge of uveitis and the patient in the clinic. It will help you identify different patterns of uveitis through clinical observation and judiciously use laboratory investigations and various treatment options. You had learnt the science behind uveitis, now you will know the art too!
