SUMMARY:Ocular Surface Disease: Pathophysiology\, Evaluation\, Management with Topical Agents\, and Neuromodulation
DESCRIPTION:CME | 1.25 Credits \n\n\n\n\n\n\nWebcast \nTime to Complete: 75 minutes \nReleased: March 12\, 2025 \nExpires: March 12\, 2026 \nMaximum Credits:\n1.25 / AMA PRA Category 1 CreditsTM \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nStart Activity\n\n\n\nProgram Description \nThis webcast provides an update on the ocular surface diseases. Cornea and conjunctiva\, lids\, exocrine glands and their innervation form an integrated entity\, which regulates the production of tear fluid.1 Stable tear fluid is essential in nourishing and protecting the ocular surface from external threats\, such as pollution\, desiccation\, injuries\, allergens and pathogens. Maintaining and protecting the transparent\, avascular cornea is particularly important for good visual acuity. Thus\, an integral part of the functioning of the ocular surface relies on the tear fluid. \nIntended Audience \nOphthalmologists\, optometrists\, and advanced practice providers (physician assistants and nurse practitioners) who manage patients with ocular surfaces diseases. \nCommercial Supporter \nThis activity is supported by an educational grant from Dompé US Inc. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLearning Objectives \nUpon completion of the educational activity\, participants should be able to: \n\nSummarize the pathophysiology\, risk factor\, and evaluation of ocular surface disease\nInterpret data on artificial tear formulations and neuromodulation in managing ocular surface disease\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAccredited Providers \nThis activity is provided by Amedco and MedNet. \n       \nJoint Accreditation Statement \nIn support of improving patient care\, Amedco and MedNet have planned and implemented this activity. Amedco is jointly accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) and the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC) to provide continuing education for the healthcare team. MedNet serves as the content and logistic provider for this activity. Amedco designates this activity for 1.25 AMA PRA Category 1 CreditsTM \nPhysicians Credit Designation \nAmedco designates this enduring material for a maximum of 1.25 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)TM. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity. \nAdditional Credit Information \nPhysician Assistants\nAAPA accepts AMA PRA Category 1 CreditTM for the PRA from organizations accredited by ACCME. Maximum of 1.25 hours. \nNurse Practitioners\nThe American Association of Nurse Practitioners (AANP) recognizes the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) and the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC) as approved accreditors\, and allows reciprocity for AANPCP continuing education credit. Maximum of 1.25 hours. \nThrough an agreement between the American Medical Association (AMA) and the European Union of Medical Specialists\, physicians and healthcare providers may convert CME/CE PRA Category 1 CreditsTM to an equivalent number of European CME Credits® (ECMECs®). The UEMS-EACCME® has recognition agreements with the AMA for live events and e-learning materials. \nFaculty \n \nSarah B. Sunshine\, MD\nAssistant Professor\, Ophthalmology\nUniversity of Maryland and Greenebaum Comprehensive Cancer\nBaltimore\, MD \nDr. Sunshine discloses the following:\nConsultant: Astra Zeneca\, GSK\nResearch Support: Incyte (IIT)\, Eversight\, NIH \n\nInstructions \nIn order to receive CME/CE credits\, participants must complete the pre-assessment questions\, post-assessment\, and program evaluation. Participants must also score at least 75% on the post-assessment. Certificates will be distributed online at the conclusion of the activity. Your online certificate will be saved on myCME within your Dashboard or Transcript\, which you can access at any time. \nACCME – Amedco\nPhone Number: 651-789-3730\nE-Mail: Sheryl@amedcoemail.com \nPrivacy Policy \nmyCME privacy policy
