ESCRS 2018 CLINICAL TRENDS SURVEY RESULTS
Colin Kerr
Published: Friday, November 1, 2019
This supplement contains the results of the 2018 ESCRS Clinical Trends Survey, conducted at the 36th Congress of the ESCRS in Vienna, Austria. Delegates also had the option of taking the survey online at the ESCRS website. Questions addressed several areas of clinical practice, including general cataract surgery, astigmatism and toric IOLs, presbyopia correction, glaucoma and ocular surface disease.
More than 1,400 physicians responded to the 155 questions, which were developed and reviewed with the ESCRS leadership team and substantiated by a data scientist. To better identify the educational needs of its members, ESCRS leadership continually refers to the results of these surveys and the feedback they elicit. The collected data will also enhance the opportunities featured at the Annual Congress of the ESCRS, the ESCRS Winter Meeting and other educational channels such as EuroTimes articles and online forums.
