At the recent Midwest Glaucoma Symposium at the Cleveland Clinic, I learned so much from a presentation by Dr Matthew Brink about the benefits of phaco in glaucoma patients. He has some very keen insights and he made the point that it deserves further research and that his findings would benefit from further inquiry. This is the mark of a true expert because the more we know, the more we realize how much more there is to know. This podcast covers that topic but also the rewards and challenges of building his new private practice and the strive to get every patient his best. Very inspiring and truly a future leader in our field, so it's great to enjoy interacting with him at this earlier stage.

At a recent ophthalmology meeting, I found a speaker with so many insightful pearls that I found myself taking quite a few notes. That speaker is Dr Tushya Om Parkash, an incredibly talented, high volume cataract surgeon who changed the way that I think about certain situations and challenges in cataract surgery. He runs the Om Parkash Eye Institute in Amritsar, India and also coordinates the Intra-ocular Implant and Refractive Society of India (IIRSI) winter meeting in his home city. I look forward to attending this meeting in person in early 2027 and encourage you to do the same. This podcast covers many truly insightful pearls which will elevate your cataract surgery skills. I know for certain that you will gain knowledge and your patients will benefit from you learning from this podcast.

He is redefining the future of ophthalmology with pioneering leadership in transformative research, from breakthrough AI integration and advanced robotics to genetic therapies. Known for his incredible designer surgery philosophy, Dr. Rocha approaches complex corneal procedures with unparalleled mastery and customization. I had the pleasure of visiting his department in May 2026 and I was really amazed at the incredible team that is McGill ophthalmology.
