Comanagment in eyecare- Dr. Nick Bruns

👁️ Did you know there are only about 18,000 ophthalmologists in the U.S. compared to 45,000 optometrists? As our population grows and ages, the demand for surgical care keeps climbing — and that’s where collaboration becomes essential. Dr. Nick Bruns from Summit Eyecare (WI) explains how ODs play a vital role in perioperative care: Managing dry eye before and after surgery Guiding patients through lens and procedure choices Supporting long-term glaucoma management Surgery doesn’t begin and end in the OR — outcomes start well before and last long after. That’s why MDs and ODs working together is the future of eyecare. #Optometry #Ophthalmology #Collaboration
