An interview with Dr. Mark Fromer. Severe eye abnormalities have been found in the eyes of some COVID-19 patients, a new study out of France contends. The findings show the need for eye screening, as well as appropriate treatment and management of potentially serious eye problems in these patients, experts say. "We showed that a few patients with severe COVID-19 from the French COVID-19 cohort had one or several nodules of the posterior pole of the [eye's] globe," explained ...study lead author Dr. Augustin Lecler, a neuroradiologist at the Foundation Adolphe de Rothschild Hospital in Paris. One U.S. ophthalmologist unconnected to the study explained that these nodules appeared in a portion of the eye's globe called the macula. "The macula is the area of the retina responsible for central vision," said Dr. Mark Fromer, who practices at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York City. "The retina is easily evaluated by a retina specialist using magnifying lenses at the bed side." At this point in time, he said it's not yet clear whether the eye changes are directly linked to COVID-19 or to its treatment, such as intubating severely ill patients and putting them on a ventilator. . . . #covid_19 #eyes #fromereyecenters #study #research See more

WHAT IS THE BEST LENS FOR YOUR CATARACT SURGERY? At the time of cataract surgery, your doctor will replace the cloudy lens in your eye with a new clear lens. A monofocal lens might be right for you if you don't mind continuing to wear glasses for some tasks. A multifocal lens might be better for you if you want to avoid wearing glasses, but some people do still need glasses after surgery with this lens. If you have astigmatism, your doctor is likely to recommend a toric len...s. Your doctor can be your guide to help you make an informed lens choice. . . #cataract #cataractsurgery #iol #cloudylens #trifocallens #multifocallens #astigmatism #fromereyecenters #besteyedoctors #nomoreglasses See more

Black History Month, Patricia Era Bath, a prominent ophthalmologist and innovative research and laser scientist, was the first African American woman physician to receive a patent for a medical invention. Bath was born on November 4, 1942 in Harlem, New York. In 1959, while in high school, she received a grant from the National Science Foundation to attend the Summer Institute in Biomedical Science at Yeshiva University. There, she studied the relationship between stress, n...utrition, and cancer. In 1964, Bath graduated from Hunter College in New York City with a B.S. in chemistry. Four years later, she received her medical degree from Howard University Medical School in Washington, D.C. The start of Bath’s medical career has been one that broke many racial and gender grounds. From 1970 to 1973, she completed her training at New York University School of Medicine as the first African American resident in ophthalmology. While a young intern at Harlem Hospital and Columbia University, Bath noticed the contrast between the eye clinic of Harlem where half of the patients were visually impaired or blind and Columbia, where only a few patients suffered from blindness. Because of this, Bath conducted a study and found that blindness among blacks was double that among whites due to the lack of access of proper eye care in black communities. In an attempt to remedy this alarming problem, she proposed a new worldwide system known as community ophthalmology in which trained eye care volunteers visit senior centers and day care programs to test the vision and screen for cataracts, glaucoma, and other serious eye conditions. Through this community outreach program, under-served populations whose eye conditions would have gone untreated have a better chance to prevent blindness. In 1974, she completed a fellowship in corneal and keratoprosthesis surgery (a procedure that replaces the human cornea with an artificial one). In that same year, she moved to Los Angeles where she became the first African American woman surgeon at the UCLA Medical Center, and she was also appointed assistant professor at Charles R. Drew University. #blackhistorymonth #blackhistory #womendoctors See more
