The eye in health and disease: Pathophysiology and treatment of DMO and RVO

Investigate the eye in health and disease – the normal structure and function of the eye, and how this changes as a result of retinal diseases. You will explore the key cells and cytokines involved in the pathophysiology of diabetic macular oedema and retinal vein occlusion, and consider inflammation as a key target for treatment.

       No. of CPD hours: 1



Optimising services for the treatment of DMO and RVO

Review the current challenges in ophthalmology services and consider how certain challenges may be overcome on an individual level and an MDT level to improve services and patient outcomes. Additionally, explore how upskilling nurses and other AHPs can positively impact those challenges.

       No. of CPD hours: 1



The power of retinal imaging: Predicting response and improving patient outcomes

Examine the different types of imaging available in ophthalmology services to measure visual impairment with confidence, and review prognostic and predictive imaging biomarkers which may guide treatment decisions.
