The UCLA Stein Eye Institute Clinical and Research Seminar will provide ophthalmologists and vision scientists with the opportunity to discuss and share experiences, review relevant literature, and synthesize this information into a comprehensive approach to evaluation, management, and treatment of ophthalmic diseases. In addition to formal lectures, there will be ample opportunity for questions and answers and discussion among faculty and attendees.
Ophthalmology has changed substantially during the 50-year existence of the UCLA Stein Eye Institute. There is a new understanding of disease pathogenesis and new tools for diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring of disease. As a result, there are new treatments for many eye disorders, and they continue to evolve.
This seminar will highlight several important areas of ophthalmic practice and research, while reflecting on the changes in each field over the past 50 years that have led to our current understanding of disease mechanisms and management strategies.
All presentations will be made by full-time faculty members and prominent guest speakers. They will describe the evolution of knowledge about selected disorders and focus on how these changes impact current ophthalmic practice. They will synthesize this information into a comprehensive approach to contemporary evaluation and treatment of ophthalmic disease that can be adopted by seminar attendees.
The 50th Anniversary Celebration also provides an opportunity to reflect on the amazing progress that has occurred in several critical areas of ophthalmic practice and research at UCLA over the past half-century. Attendees will learn about new facilities and resources at the UCLA Stein Eye Institute and become familiar with activities of current faculty members.
Doheny Days
Discussions about many of the seminar topics will continue the following day at the annual Doheny Days meeting. The Doheny Eye Institute is now affiliated with UCLA, and the two annual meetings have been organized this year to complement one another, providing an in-depth review of important areas of ophthalmic research and patient care. While each meeting can stand alone, registrants are encouraged to attend both.

For each of the diseases or disciplines discussed, at the conclusion of the seminar participants should be able to:
- Understand the scientific basis for changes in ophthalmic practice.
- Identify new concepts about disease mechanisms that are relevant to clinical practice.
- Apply new information to diagnostic, treatment, and monitoring strategies in clinical practice, and know the indications for implementation of these changes, either at tertiary referral centers or in a community-based setting.
- Acquire the background necessary to follow future changes in ophthalmic research and practice.
- Anticipate additional changes in ophthalmology, based on emerging information.

The FDA has issued a concept paper which classifies commercial support of scientific and educational programs as promotional unless it can be affirmed that the program is "truly independent" and free of commercial influence. In addition to independence, the FDA requires that nonpromotional, commercially supported education be objective, balanced, and scientifically rigorous. The policy further states that all potential conflicts of interest of the CME staff and faculty be fully disclosed to the program's participants. In addition, Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education policy now mandates that the provider adequately manages all identified potential conflicts of interest prior to the program. We at UCLA fully endorse the letter and spirit of these concepts.
