Self-Assessment CreditThis year’s Subspecialty Day meetings, as well as up to 10 credit hours within AAO 2014, have been pre-approved as self-assessment credit. These courses and the Cataract Spotlight are designated within the AAO 2014 program with a SA symbol. Portions of these activities meet the Self-Assess-ment CME requirements defined by the American Board of Ophthalmology (ABO). The ABO is not an accrediting body for purposes of any CME pro-gram. ABO does not sponsor this or any outside activity, and ABO does not endorse any particular CME activity. Complete information regarding the ABO Self-Assessment CME Maintenance of Certification requirements are available at: http://abop.org/maintain-certification/part-2-lifelong-learning-self-assessment/cme/. NOTE: Credit designated as “self-assessment” is AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™ and is also pre-approved by the ABO for the Maintenance of Certification (MOC) Part II CME requirements.

All persons in a position to control the content of this activity must disclose any and all financial interests. The Academy has mechanisms in place to resolve all conflicts of interest prior to an educational activity being delivered to learners.

Attendance Verification for CME ReportingBefore processing your requests for CME credit, the Academy must verify your attendance at AAO 2014 and/or Subspecialty Day. In order to be verified for CME or auditing purposes, you must either:• Register in advance, receive your materials in

the mail before traveling to the meeting, then turn in the Final Program and/or Subspecialty Day Syllabus exchange voucher(s) onsite;

• Register in advance, pick up your materials onsite if you did not receive them before travel-ing to the meeting;

• Register onsite; or• Scan the barcode on your badge as you enter

an AAO 2014 course or session room.

Badge Scanning – What Does It Mean?Each AAO 2014 meeting badge displays a barcode. Staff stationed at each course and session room will scan your badge, verifying your attendance.At the end of each day, an e-mail will be sent confirming the courses and sessions at which your badge was scanned, with links directly to the evaluation. Your participation in the evaluation process is critical for maintaining a high-quality program. NOTE: You do not need to scan your badge at Sub-specialty Day meetings, AAOE coding sessions or at any ticketed event.

Badge Scanning and CMEGetting your badge scanned does not automati-cally grant CME. You still need to record your own educational activities. You can do so either in Chicago, at designated CME Reporting stations, or online after the meeting. Please note: You should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of your participation in the activity.

Important Safety Information about the WaveLight® Excimer Laser Systems

This information pertains to all WaveLight® Excimer Laser Systems, including the WaveLight® ALLEGRETTO WAVE®, the ALLEGRETTO WAVE® Eye-Q , and the WaveLight® EX500.

Caution: Federal (U.S.) law restricts the WaveLight® Excimer Laser Systems to sale by or on the order of a physician. Only practitioners who are experienced in the medical mangement and surgical treatment of the cornea, who have been trained in laser refractive surgery (including laser calibration and operation) should use a WaveLight® Excimer Laser System.

Indications: FDA has approved the WaveLight® Excimer Laser for use in laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) treatments for:

• the reduction or elimination of myopia of up to - 12.0 DS and up to 6.0 D of astigmatism at the spectacle plane;

• the reduction or elimination of hyperopia up to + 6.0 DS with and without astigmatic refractive errors up to 5.0 D at the spectacle plane, with a maximum manifest refraction spherical equivalent of + 6.0 D;

• the reduction or elimination of naturally occurring mixed astigmatism of up to 6.0 D at the spectacle plane; and

• the wavefront-guided reduction or elimination of myopia of up to -7.0 DS and up to 3.0 D of astigmatism at the spectacle plane.

In addition, FDA has approved the WaveLight® ALLEGRETTO WAVE® Eye-Q Excimer Laser System, when used with the WaveLight® ALLEGRO Topolyzer® and topography-guided treatment planning software for topography-guided LASIK treatments for the reduction or elimination of up to -9.00 D of myopia, or for the reduction or elimination of myopia with astigmatism, with up to -8.00 D of myopia and up to 3.00 D of astigmatism.

The WaveLight® Excimer Laser Systems are only indicated for use in patients who are 18 years of age or older (21 years of age or older for mixed astigmatism) with documentation of a stable manifest refraction de�ned as ≤ 0.50 D of preoperative spherical equivalent shift over one year prior to surgery, exclusive of changes due to unmasking latent hyperopia.

Contraindications: The WaveLight® Excimer Laser Systems are contraindicated for use with patients who:

• are pregnant or nursing;

• have a diagnosed collagen vascular, autoimmune or immunode�ciency disease;

• have been diagnosed keratoconus or if there are any clinical pictures suggestive of keratoconus; or

• are taking isotretinoin (Accutane*) and/or amiodarone hydrochloride (Cordarone*).

Warnings: The WaveLight® Excimer Laser Systems are not recommended for use with patients who have:

• systemic diseases likely to a�ect wound healing, such as connective tissue disease, insulin dependent diabetes, severe atopic disease or an immunocompromised status;

• a history of Herpes simplex or Herpes zoster keratitis;

• signi�cant dry eye that is unresponsive to treatment;

• severe allergies; or

• an unreliable preoperative wavefront examination that precludes wavefront-guided treatment.

• a poor quality preoperative topography map that precludes topography-guided LASIK treatment.

The wavefront-guided LASIK procedure requires accurate and reliable data from the wavefront examination. Every step of every wavefront measurement that may be used as the basis for a wavefront-guided LASIK procedure must be validated by the user. Inaccurate or unreliable data from the wavefront examination will lead to an inaccurate treatment.

Topography-guided LASIK requires preoperative topography maps of su�cient quality to use for planning a topography-guided LASIK treatment. Poor quality topography maps may a�ect the accuracy of the topography-guided LASIK treatment and may result in poor vision after topography-guided LASIK.

Precautions: The safety and e�ectiveness of the WaveLight® Excimer Laser Systems have not been established for patients with:

• progressive myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism and/or mixed astigmatism, ocular disease, previous corneal or intraocular surgery, or trauma in the ablation zone;

• corneal abnormalities including, but not limited to, scars, irregular astigmatism and corneal warpage;

• residual corneal thickness after ablation of less than 250 microns due to the increased risk for corneal ectasia;

• pupil size below 7.0 mm after mydriatics where applied for wavefront-guided ablation planning;

• history of glaucoma or ocular hypertension of > 23 mmHg;

• taking the medication sumatriptan succinate (Imitrex*);

• corneal, lens and/or vitreous opacities including, but not limited to cataract;

• iris problems including , but not limited to, coloboma and previous iris surgery compromising proper eye tracking; or

• taking medications likely to a�ect wound healing including (but not limited to) antimetabolites.

In addition, safety and e�ectiveness of the WaveLight® Excimer Laser Systems have not been established for:

• treatments with an optical zone < 6.0 mm or > 6.5 mm in diameter, or an ablation zone > 9.0 mm in diameter; or

• wavefront-guided treatment targets di�erent from emmetropia (plano) in which the wavefront calculated defocus (spherical term) has been adjusted;

In the WaveLight® Excimer Laser System clinical studies, there were few subjects with cylinder amounts > 4 D and ≤ 6 D. Not all complications, adverse events, and levels of e�ectiveness may have been determined for this population.

Pupil sizes should be evaluated under mesopic illumination conditions. E�ects of treatment on vision under poor illumination cannot be predicted prior to surgery.

Adverse Events and ComplicationsMyopia: In the myopia clinical study, 0.2% (2/876) of the eyes had a lost, misplaced, or misaligned �ap reported at the 1 month examination.

The following complications were reported 6 months after LASIK: 0.9% (7/818) had ghosting or double images in the operative eye; 0.1% (1/818) of the eyes had a corneal epithelial defect.

Hyperopia: In the hyperopia clinical study, 0.4% (1/276) of the eyes had a retinal detachment or retinal vascular accident reported at the 3 month examination.

The following complications were reported 6 months after LASIK: 0.8% (2/262) of the eyes had a corneal epithelial defect and 0.8% (2/262) had any epithelium in the interface.

Mixed Astigmatism: In the mixed astigmatism clinical study, two adverse events were reported. The �rst event involved a patient who postoperatively was subject to blunt trauma to the treatment eye 6 days after surgery. The patient was found to have an intact globe with no rupture, in�ammation or any dislodgement of the �ap. UCVA was decreased due to this event. The second event involved the treatment of an incorrect axis of astigmatism. The axis was treated at 60 degrees instead of 160 degrees.

The following complications were reported 6 months after LASIK: 1.8% (2/111) of the eyes had ghosting or double images in the operative eye.

Wavefront-Guided Myopia: No adverse events occurred during the postoperative period of the wavefront-guided LASIK procedures. In the Control Cohort (traditional LASIK treatment) one subject undergoing traditional LASIK had the axis of astigmatism programmed as 115 degrees instead of the actual 155 degree axis. This led to cylinder in the left eye.

The following complications were reported 6 months after wavefront-guided LASIK in the Study Cohort: 1.2% (2/166) of the eyes had a corneal epithelial defect; 1.2% (2/166) had foreign body sensation; and 0.6% (1/166) had pain. No complications were reported in the Control Cohort.

Topography-Guided Myopia: There were six adverse events reported in the topography-guided myopia study. Four of the eyes experienced transient or temporary decreases in vision prior to the �nal 12 month follow-up visit, all of which were resolved by the �nal follow-up visit. One subject su�ered from decreased vision in the treated eye, following blunt force trauma 4 days after surgery. One subject experienced retinal detachment, which was concluded to be unrelated to the surgical procedure.

Clinical DataMyopia: The myopia clinical study included 901 eyes treated, of which 813 of 866 eligible eyes were followed for 12 months. Accountability at 3 months was 93.8%, at 6 months was 91.9%, and at 12 months was 93.9%. Of the 782 eyes eligible for the uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA) analysis of e�ectiveness at the 6-month stability time point, 98.3% were corrected to 20/40 or better, and 87.7% were corrected to 20/20 or better. Subjects who responded to a patient satisfaction questionnaire before and after LASIK reported the following visual symptoms at a “moderate” or “severe” level at least 1% higaher at 3 months post-treatment than at baseline: visual �uctuations (28.6% vs. 12.8% at baseline).

Long term risks of LASIK for myopia with and without astigmatism have not been studied beyond 12 months.Hyperopia: The hyperopia clinical study included 290 eyes treated, of which 100 of 290 eligible eyes were followed for 12 months. Accountability at 3 months was 95.2%, at 6 months was 93.9%, and at 12 months was 69.9%. Of the 212 eyes eligible for the UCVA analysis of e�ectiveness at the 6-month stability time point, 95.3% were corrected to 20/40 or better, and 69.4% were corrected to 20/20 or better. Subjects who responded to a patient satisfaction

questionnaire before and after LASIK reported the following visual symptoms as “much worse” at 6 months post-treatment: halos (6.4%); visual �uctuations (6.1%); light sensitivity (4.9%); night driving glare (4.2%); and glare from bright lights (3.0%).

Long term risks of LASIK for hyperopia with and without astigmatism have not been studied beyond 12 months.

Mixed Astigmatism: The mixed astigmatism clinical study included 162 eyes treated, of which 111 were eligible to be followed for 6 months. Accountability at 1 month was 99.4%, at 3 months was 96.0%, and at 6 months was 100.0%. Of the 142 eyes eligible for the UCVA analysis of e�ectiveness at the 6-month stability time point, 97.3% achieved acuity of 20/40 or better, and 69.4% achieved acuity of 20/20 or better. Subjects who responded to a patient satisfaction questionnaire before and after LASIK reported the following visual symptoms at a “moderate” or “severe” level at least 1% higher at 3 months post-treatment than at baseline: sensitivity to light (52.9% vs. 43.3% at baseline); visual �uctuations (43.0% vs. 32.1% at baseline); and halos (42.3% vs. 37.0% at baseline).

Long term risks of LASIK for mixed astigmatism have not been studied beyond 6 months.

Wavefront-Guided Myopia: The wavefront-guided myopia clinical study included 374 eyes treated; 188 with wavefront-guided LASIK (Study Cohort) and 186 with Wavefront Optimized® LASIK (Control Cohort). 166 of the Study Cohort and 166 of the Control Cohort were eligible to be followed at 6 months. In the Study Cohort, accountability at 1 month was 96.8%, at 3 months was 96.8%, and at 6 months was 93.3%. In the Control Cohort, accountability at 1 month was 94.6%, at 3 months was 94.6%, and at 6 months was 92.2%.

Of the 166 eyes in the Study Cohort that were eligible for the UCVA analysis of e�ectiveness at the 6-month stability time point, 99.4% were corrected to 20/40 or better, and 93.4% were corrected to 20/20 or better. Of the 166 eyes in the Control Cohort eligible for the UCVA analysis of e�ectiveness at the 6-month stability time point, 99.4% were corrected to 20/40 or better, and 92.8% were corrected to 20/20.

In the Study Cohort, subjects who responded to a patient satisfaction questionnaire before and after LASIK reported the following visual symptoms at a “moderate” or “severe” level at least 1% higher at 3 months post-treatment than at baseline: light sensitivity (47.8% vs. 37.2% at baseline) and visual �uctuations (20.0% vs. 13.8% at baseline). In the Control Cohort, the following visual symptoms were reported at a “moderate” or “severe” level at least 1% higher at 3 months post-treatment than at baseline: halos (45.4% vs. 36.6% at baseline) and visual �uctuations (21.9% vs. 18.3% at baseline).

Long term risks of wavefront-guided LASIK for myopia with and without astigmatism have not been studied beyond 6 months.

Topography-Guided Myopia: The topography-guided myopia clinical study included 249 eyes treated, of which 230 eyes were followed for 12 months. Accountability at 3 months was 99.2%, at 6 months was 98.0%, and at 12 months was 92.4%. Of the 247 eyes that were eligible for the UCVA analysis at the 3-month stability time point, 99.2% were corrected to 20/40 or better, and 92.7% were corrected to 20/20 or better. Subjects who responded to a patient satisfaction questionnaire before and after LASIK reported the following visual symptoms as “marked” or “severe” at an incidence greater than 5% at 1 month after surgery: dryness (7% vs. 4% at baseline) and light sensitivity (7% vs. 5% at baseline). Visual symptoms continued to improve with time, and none of the visual symptoms were rated as being “marked” or “severe” with an incidence of at least 5% at 3 months or later after surgery.

Long term risks of topography-guided LASIK for myopia with and without astigmatism have not been studied beyond 12 months.

Information for Patients: Prior to undergoing LASIK surgery with a WaveLight® Excimer Laser System, prospective patients must receive a copy of the relevant Patient Information Booklet, and must be informed of the alternatives for correcting their vision, including (but not limited to) eyeglasses, contact lenses, photorefractive keratectomy, and other refractive surgeries.

IS THE TIME TO PREVENT INTRAOPERATIVE MIOSIS

INDICATIONS AND USAGEOMIDRIA™ is an alpha 1-adrenergic receptor agonist and nonselective cyclooxygenase inhibitor indicated for:

• Maintaining pupil size by preventing intraoperative miosis

• Reducing postoperative ocular pain

OMIDRIA™ is added to an irrigation solution used during cataract surgery or intraocular lens replacement.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATIONOMIDRIA™ must be diluted prior to intraocular use.

OMIDRIA™ is contraindicated in patients with a known hypersensitivity to any of its ingredients.

Systemic exposure to phenylephrine may cause elevations in blood pressure.

Use OMIDRIA™ with caution in individuals who have previously exhibited sensitivities

to acetylsalicylic acid, phenylacetic acid derivatives, and other non-steroidal anti-inflammatories (NSAIDs), or have a past medical history of asthma.

The most common reported ocular adverse reactions at 2-24% are eye irritation, posterior capsule opacification, increased intraocular pressure, and anterior chamber inflammation.

Use of OMIDRIA™ in children has not been established.

Please see full prescribing information for OMIDRIA™ at www.omidria.com/prescribinginformation.

You are encouraged to report negative side effects of prescription drugs to the FDA. Visit www.fda.gov/medwatch, or call 1-800-FDA-1088.

FDA-approved, preservative- and bisulfite-free OMIDRIA™ (phenylephrine and ketorolac injection) 1% / 0.3% is the only treatment proven to maintain pupil size and reduce postoperative ocular pain in cataract surgery

• Maintains pupil size by preventing intraoperative miosis

• Significantly reduces postoperative ocular pain

• Contains ketorolac (an NSAID) together with phenylephrine (a mydriatic agent) and is added to ophthalmic irrigation solution

AAOE General Session Sunday, Oct. 19Room S406b

Powered by PurposeSuccess ultimately comes down to an individual’s ability to articulate their brand values, create a framework or culture built around those values and lead others to the brand mission or purpose. Quite honestly, this keynote presentation, based on Scott Deming’s soon to be released book Powered by Purpose is about individual leaders.

You might think, ”Wait, I’m not a leader and not everyone in the room is in a leadership position. This program isn’t for us.” Stop right there! Before you decide that this program isn’t for you, let me pose a question: Just what is a leader? A leader is:• Someone who has a clear vision about what he or she wants to do;

• Someone who understands what’s important to himself or herself;

• Someone who is willing to shoulder the responsibility of accomplishing his or her goals; and

• Not necessarily someone already in a formal leadership role. In fact, there are people thrown into leadership roles who have no idea how they’re supposed to fulfill leadership duties.

You may be a natural born leader and know it, or you may be a natural born leader and just haven’t real-ized it yet. You may be a manager who wants to move up, a supervisor who wants to connect with those under your responsibility or a CEO who needs to set a new course for a company. You may want to lead a sales department, a group of tourists through a museum or a cause you believe is more important than your own status in life. You may be someone who has the passion and knowledge to accomplish great things — but also someone who does not think in terms of leadership. The fact is, if you’re not already, you will likely be in a leadership position one day. You need to be prepared. Why? Because you need to understand what it means for you to be a leader, not simply someone who is in a leadership position.

This program is devoted to the individual’s relationship to his or her values and purpose, and how better understanding of your own values and purpose can lead to success.
