ASCRS has a new online CME program in its catalogue. Introducing “A Taste of ASCRS.” Captured from the ASCRS Summer Meeting, which took place earlier this year, this program is designed to offer a “taste” of the best education available from *the* subspecialty society dedicated to anterior segment surgeons.

A Taste of ASCRS, designed by program co-chairs Douglas Koch, MD, Sumitra Khandelwal, MD, Daniel Chang, MD, and YES Program Chair Zaina Al-Mohtaseb, MD, features clinical pearls that you can put into practice on day one in the areas of cataract and refractive surgery, cornea, glaucoma, presbyopia, and more!

The whole program is approved for 7.5 AMA PRA Category 1 CreditsTM.
