Ep. 3 - Identifying Bino Vision Disorders w/ Dr. Miki Zilnicki
Dr. Miki Zilnick, co-owner of Twin Forks Optometry and frequent lecturer on BV and VT, discusses handling complaints of double vision (diplopia). Key steps include determining onset, frequency, and direction of double vision, which can indicate serious conditions like space-occupying lesions. Imaging is recommended for new onset cases. Visual acuity, extraocular muscle testing, and cover tests are essential examinations. Prism and vision therapy are treatment options, with vision therapy being particularly effective for convergence insufficiency. Proper handling of double vision can enhance patient satisfaction and build practice reputation.

Ep. 2 - Post. Segment Technology w/ Dr. Chris Lopez
In this episode, Dr. Chris Lopez discusses the advancements in posterior segment technology, focusing on four key areas: ERG (Electroretinography), extended color vision, virtual visual field testing, and lasers in optometry. ERG, now a handheld device, assesses retinal function objectively, with protocols like DRA for diabetic retinopathy. Extended color vision tests, quick and subjective, aid in retinal and optic nerve function assessment. Virtual visual fields, performed via headsets, offer convenience and are comparable to traditional tests. Lasers, including YAG capsulotomy, LPI, and SLT, are increasingly used by optometrists, especially in rural areas, despite low ROI, emphasizing comprehensive patient care.
