How do you run a high-performing ophthalmology practice in today’s increasingly complex healthcare environment?

At the 78th Annual Wills Eye Conference in Philadelphia, I shared practical strategies in my talk, “Practice Management 2026,” focused on efficiency, financial performance, technology, and leadership in modern ophthalmology.

This session was part of the Wills Eye Conference Administrator Program, where leaders across ophthalmology discussed financial management, risk mitigation, and innovation. My talk was delivered as part of a broader effort to help practices adapt and thrive in today’s environment.

Key Takeaways

  • High-performing practices rely on systems, not individuals
  • Small inefficiencies compound into major financial impact over time
  • Financial oversight and internal controls are critical
  • Technology and AI should improve workflow—not add friction
  • Culture, accountability, and leadership drive long-term success

For those interested in one of the most underrecognized risks in practice management, I previously shared insights on preventing internal losses here:  Avoiding Embezzlement in Ophthalmic & Medical Practices.

In the end, building a successful practice isn’t about doing more—it’s about building smarter systems that support your team, your patients, and your mission.
