I just can’t keep up with all of the clinical trial acronyms. Can you tell me what study each refers to?
What systemic medications require periodic fundus evaluation, what am I looking for, and what tests do I do?
Explain all of these new anticoagulants to me. Should I consider stopping them preoperatively?
