2024 ASCRS ASOA MEETING GUIDE | 17 ASCRS SUBSPECIALTY DAY ASCRS REFRACTIVE DAY The Refractive Surgery Triathlon: Master All Stages of the Lifelong Refractive Journey BCEC – Ballroom East Refractive Day will focus on understanding our patients' lifelong refractive journey. Over a lifetime, patients could benefit from corneal refractive surgery and phakic IOLs, presbyopia treatments, and refractive cataract surgery. Therefore, when planning any refractive approach, surgeons should consider past, present, and possible future treatments. Like triathletes preparing for a three-staged race, surgeons should develop specific skillsets for each stage of refractive surgery while cultivating a general knowledge and continued awareness of the entire lifelong refractive journey.
