Enroll in the Business of Refractive Cataract Surgery (BRiCS) Summit

Premium implant adoption is low relative to patient demand, and practices that offer these options differentiate themselves and develop a sustainable revenue pathway.

Let the Business of Refractive Cataract Surgery (BRiCS) Summit—where clinical innovation meets business strategy—show you how to successfully and confidently increase premium IOL adoption. This course, spearheaded by Vance Thompson, MD, and developed with experienced program directors, is in its second year, enrolling a class of practice teams for intensive in-person instruction, ongoing support, and extensive resources.

Learn more about the course taking place October 3–5 in Chicago, Illinois. Enroll now.
