IDOC Summer National Conference

Objective, functional results for you. Enhanced care for your patients.

“The Latest in Patient Management: Using Objective, Function Results”

featuring James Thimons, OD, FAAO Friday, August 17th from 2:00-3:00pm Determining treatment for a patient with suspected retinal pathology can be challenging. While visual acuity can serve as a benchmark, vision gains do not necessarily correlate with improvement in structure or global function. Despite the array of diagnostic modalities available to you, very few deliver actionable information that is helpful in deciding if treatment is working, when to change course, or perhaps even when to cease treatment. Learn why you need objective, functional results.
Diopsys, Inc. provides innovative technology to help improve your clinical practice. We have made unprecedented progress in the field of visual electrophysiology, creating accessible, practical electroretinography (ERG) and visual evoked potential (VEP) vision tests that can benefit your daily patients. Results from these tests are clinically effective in helping to manage a variety of vision disorders such as diabetic retinopathy, CRVO, retinal concerns obscured by media opacities, uveitis, optic neuritis, vision problems due to TBI, and more.1-7 Please visit us at the IDOC Summer National Conference to learn how modern ERG and VEP can benefit your diagnostic and treatment plans.
  • Both objective and functional test results
  • Enhanced treatment tracking and disease management
  • Intuitive, color-coded reports based on documented reference ranges

This is visual electrophysiology for the 21st century. Come see for yourself.
