Dr. Kurt Schwiesow, MD, recently lead a continuing education event for area optometrists at Tower Clock Surgery Center. The seminar was entitled Microincisional Glaucoma Surgery Update – Fall 2019 and allowed those in attendance one credit hour in glaucoma education.
Dr. Schwiesow, a fellowship-trained glaucoma specialist, often presents to optometrists to further education them in glaucoma treatment. His discussion focused on devices, such as the Xen stent and iStent, as well as procedures in how to treat the disease.
As a bonus, Dr. Matthew Thompson, MD, a fellowship-trained cornea specialist, also briefly updated attendees on cornea crosslinking.
Tower Clock Eye Center doctors often present to fellow physicians, as well as the public, to better educate them on pertinent topics as relate to eye disease, new treatments, and the latest technology.
Yesterday Dr. Kunal Patel presented to the Fox Cities Living in Retirement group at Oak Park Place in Menasha. Dr. Patel spoke on everything from basic eye exams to specific glaucoma and cataract surgeries. Our surgeons frequently speak at such events to better inform the public of eye health.
All Tower Clock Eye Center and Surgery Center locations will be closed Monday, September 2 in observance of the Labor Day holiday. We will reopen with normal business hours on Tuesday, September 3. We wish everyone to have a happy and safe Labor Day!
