New Retina Radio Journal Club: Masking in Retina: Keeping Patients Safe from Bacterial Exposure

Masks are effective in curbing transmission of COVID-19. But could they also direct bacteria toward the ocular region? Yoshi Yonekawa, MD, hears from two primary study investigators—Ajay Kuriyan, MD, and Jonathan Chang, MD—about their newly published studies, and invites Paula Pecen, MD, to evaluate the studies' designs, findings, and clinical relevance. After the break, all four doctors compare the two papers and review their respective masking protocols. This editorially independent podcast is supported with advertising.
