"During the current pandemic, staff retention and turnover is a bigger problem than ever... Despite strong efforts to keep our team together by holding virtual town hall meetings, continuing to pay health insurance, and connecting with weekly updates, we lost six of our 30 employees during the lockdown and closure of our practice from March 20 to May 4, 2020. That’s 20% of our staff in less than 2 months, and almost every area of the office was affected. Most of these employees left because of fears about working in a health care environment, some left to oversee the education of their children who were now learning virtually, and others took advantage of the opportunity to change careers." https://bit.ly/3wyatGe

It is notoriously difficult to calculate corneal power and estimate the effective lens position in post-RK eyes, and hyperopic refractive surprises after cataract surgery are not uncommon. As evidenced by their history of refractive surgery, however, these patients desire spectacle independence. This is the first report on the use of EDOF IOLs in patients who have undergone RK. https://bit.ly/3iZDfuy
Research suggests it is possible to reduce their dependence on spectacles.
Impostor syndrome can be defined as doubting one’s ability and harboring an internalized feeling of being a fraud in the face of objective evidence that clearly suggests otherwise. It is known to exist in people of both sexes, but its prevalence can be disproportionately high in women.
Alarmingly, this syndrome can be crippling, and most importantly, both men and women exhibit unconscious gender bias that can inadvertently and innocently contribute to impostor syndrome. https://bit.ly/3y6HxXw
