Title: Decoding Ocular Surface Disease: A Case-Based Approach to Diagnosis in Clinical Practice
Speaker: Mile Brujic, OD, FAAO
Description: This Crack the Case Satellite Symposium features expert faculty and 1 hour of interactive, case-based learning. Using a complex clinical scenario, attendees will explore how to identify Demodex blepharitis and distinguish it from other ocular surface conditions through targeted history-taking and slit-lamp examination. Faculty will review key diagnostic signs, including collarettes, discuss evidence-based treatment approaches that target the underlying mite infestation, and share practical strategies for patient counseling, treatment adherence, long-term management, and reducing the risk of recurrence.
