I'm so excited to speak with you all about effectively managing ocular pain in your patients. We will chat about practical pain management techniques, emphasizing a balanced approach to OTC, non-narcotic, and narcotic medications and best practices for prescribing opioids and navigate the complexities of ocular pain management.
 
What can I say about Tammy Pertrosyan but she has given more lectures than anyone on CEwire. There must be a reason why! Enjoy my friend
 
Tammy, glad you're part of CEwire again this year. :)
