Waste in Ophthalmology ORs

Marko Oydanich, MD, discusses the growing environmental burden of the health care sector, as featured in an article he wrote with Albert Khouri, MD, and Jasmine Mahajan, BS, for a recent issue of Glaucoma Today. Dr. Oydanich offers strategies for reducing waste in ophthalmology ORs, much of which results from single-use equipment and devices. Later, David Chang, MD, shares the mission of EyeSustain.org, a web-based resource center for sustainability in ophthalmology, as covered in an article written with Cassandra Thiel, PhD, and featured in GT.
