PANEL DISCUSSION DESCRIPTION
This interesting panel discussion will focus on the diagnosis, therapeutic approach, and clinical and surgical management of corneal diseases and syndromes in equine patients as well as the potential pitfalls which should be considered.
Join the panel of internationally renowned specialist ophthalmology clinicians as they discuss and debate how to approach multiple challenging cases. The case discussions will address the approach to cases of misdiagnosis; therapeutic and surgical mistakes; complications following surgery; and those with frustrating outcomes despite therapy.
