Using OCT Angiography to Distinguish RVO and RAO
How can OCT angiography help retina specialists distinguish between retinal vein occlusion (RVO) and retinal artery occlusion (RAO) in patients who present without acute findings? Using real-world cases as a backdrop, Yasha Modi, MD, and Kat Talcott, MD, discuss Dr. Modi’s approach to distinguishing RVO and RAO via OCT angiography and review which specific OCT angiography findings may indicate referral to cardiology. Later in the episode, they explore the utility and limitations of OCT angiography in patients with diabetic retinopathy.

Switching from Aflibercept to Faricimab in Wet AMD Patients
Does switching wet AMD patients from aflibercept (Eylea, Regeneron) to faricimab (Vabysmo, Genentech) improve disease outcomes? Join Ben Young, MD, MS, and his guests Lediana Goduni, MD, and Joshua Uhr, MD, as they explore this a recent peer review paper on this question. What are the potential benefits of such a switch? How should providers use findings such as these to inform their practice? And are significant improvements in anatomy relevant if vision gains are unchanged?
