Humphrey 24-2C The Origin Story with Gus DeMoraes, ep 33

Intro: Welcome to Talking About Glaucoma episode for December 31, 2020. I bet you're glad this year is over! I'm still digging through the vaults to post episodes like this gem and have a few more that will go live soon. Email me at podcast@iguy.org if you would like to be on the show to discuss a topic in glaucoma or if you have questions that you would like to have answered on a future episode. Check out WestCoastGlaucoma on Instagram for some short-form videos that can also be found on my robschertzer YouTube channel. . In this episode, I talk with Gus DeMoraes, a frequent guest of the pod. Gus is Associate Professor of Ophthalmology at Columbia University where he serves as Medical Director of Clinical Trials. When we originally sat down to record this way back in March 2019, he had just presented some of the work he had done in collaboration with Don Hood. This has now appeared on Humphrey perimeters as the 24-2C testing strategy and is becoming a new the standard of care. It is based on reports in recent years that glaucoma damage often occurs in the macular area but missed because the standard 24-2 testing strategy only tests in 6 degree increments. These early central glaucomatous defects are often hidden between the test points. Listen in as I talk with Gus. I'm Rob Schertzer, a Vancouver, Canada based glaucoma specialist, podcaster and HealthIT expert, and we're...talking about glaucoma.
