New York Eye and Ear Infirmary of Mount Sinai

Congratulations to Richard Rosen, MD on receiving the American Society of Retina Specialists’ (ASRS) Founders Award for 2024 at the 42nd annual meeting in Stockholm, Sweden. Dr. Rosen was given the award for his significant contributions to the advancement of vitreoretinal surgery, treatment, research, and patient care, as well as for his dedication to ophthalmology. #nyee #mountsinai #asrs2024

Gareth Lema, MD, PhD, a retina specialist at NYEE, discusses his research regarding multiuse eye drop bottles and how they are often discarded at medical centers long before the FDA-regulated expiration date, leading to significant drug waste and increased costs. #nyee #mountsinai https://lnkd.in/e-dAnD6z

Alon Harris, PhD, Richard Rosen, MD, and Masako Chen, MD at NYEE discuss new research using a tear film imager (TFI) to understand and ultimately offer better treatment for patients with dry eye disease. #mountsinai #nyee #dryeye https://lnkd.in/eEMZa8Fs

A third-party software outage is impacting computer systems worldwide, including at Mount Sinai Health System. Patient safety remains our top priority. All appointments today remain as planned unless you hear from us. We will notify you if your non-urgent appointment or procedure needs to be rescheduled due to the global technology outage. We are thankful to our staff who are working to ensure care continues with minimal interruption.

James Tsai, MD, discusses recent research at NYEE regarding self-imposed use cessation dates for ophthalmic eye drop bottles and how it has increased waste and costs compared to dates listed by the FDA. #nyee #mountsinai #eyedrops https://lnkd.in/eCCcJ6FM

Kira manusis, MD, a #cataract specialist at #NYEE, discusses #miCOR, a new surgical tool that is improving cataract surgery for her patients like Jon Gingerich. New York Eye and Ear Infirmary of Mount Sinai was one of only 10 centers in the US (the first in New York) to trial this new technology in January of 2024. Developed by Sean Ianchulev MD MPH, Director of the Ophthalmic Innovation and Technology at NYEE, the hand-held device allows surgeons to perform cataract surgery using less energy which has the potential to benefit patient outcomes. #cataractsurgery https://lnkd.in/eUqw2jpc

Brian Goldstein, MPA, CHAM, Director, Access Registration, Mount Sinai Beth Israel and New York Eye and Ear Infirmary of Mount Sinai, shares the positive impact on patient experience and revenue cycle for most hospitals, from a recently enacted price transparency law (New York State Public Health Law 2830). #nyee #mountsinai #pricetransparencylaw https://lnkd.in/eYU-J9xA

Alon Harris, MS, PhD, FARVO, Director of Ophthalmic Vascular Diagnostic & Research Program and Co-Director of the Center for Ophthalmic Artificial Intelligence & Human Health, in collaboration with Dr. Giovanna Guidoboni (University of Maine) and high school students developed new methods to quantify the relative impact of blood pressure and intraocular pressure on ocular hemodynamics. Based on these results, new approaches to #glaucoma care that have never been explored before, based on the co-regulation of blood pressure and intraocular pressure, can be developed. Dr. Harris and Dr. Guidoboni were the first to develop a theoretical framework via a physiology-based mathematical model capable of translating the concepts into quantifiable metrics. The high school students are taking this a step further by developing a physical model of the circulation in the eye that can visually show the effects of the two pressures on blood flow. This will allow clinicians to learn more about the two-pressure system and to help educate the community. #mountsinai #nyee #ophthalmology #AI #artificialintelligence https://lnkd.in/eD9h3fmU

Louis Pasquale, MD, and colleagues' research find that a risk score incorporating genetic variants for open-angle #glaucoma is accurate enough to help with diagnosis of the condition. #nyee #mountsinai https://lnkd.in/eRmGqbgC
