Welcome to my daily learning journal. My daily goal is to watch one Ted Talk and one cataract surgery. I also plan to read one journal article and read/listen to a book chapter, short story or significant work.
Here’s today’s list:
1. Ted Talk – Lucy Hone – 3 secrets of resilient people “Everyone experiences loss, but how do you cope with the tough moments that follow? Resilience researcher Lucy Hone shares three hard-won strategies for developing the capacity to brave adversity, overcome struggle and face whatever may come head-on with fortitude and grace.” (ted.com)
I applied her 3rd pearl immediately (and hope to implement daily). Worth a watch. 16 minutes.
2A. Cataract Surgery – Uday Devgan MD – Mastering Divide-and-Conquer – Guest surgeon Dr. Neto Rosatelli (Brazil). I learned divide and conquer as an ophthalmology resident. Nice technique.
2B. Cataract Surgery – Ike Ahmed MD – Management of discontinuous capsulorhexis during cataract surgery. Revisited this case while looking for Ike’s iris explantation video (below).
3A. Journal – Mansour AM, Ahmed IIK, Eadie B, et al . Iritis, glaucoma and corneal decompensation associated with BrightOcular cosmetic iris implant. British Journal of Ophthalmology 2016;100:1098-1101.
#IkeNeedsAHaircut posted a case he performed on the explantation of a BrightOcular cosmetic iris implant. He linked to the BJO article above.
4. Book Chapter – Mark Twain – The Adventures of Tom Sawyer. Chapters 18-23 via LoyalBooks.com Apple podcast. See also Sparknotes (narration) and Gutenberg (book text).
5. AAO Draws Global Support in Condemnation of Rubber Bullets. by Peter Downs. #NoRubberBullets
Please send me feedback. Would appreciate suggestions of Ted Talks, cataract videos, and journal articles to learn from and share.
