Retinal diagnostics, especially imaging technology has witnessed a revolution over past decade. Increased usage of newer OCTs like swept source technology, OCT angiography, newer autofluorescence protocols, wide field imaging and resurgence of ICG and electroretinography present immense data to clinician. To make sense out of this data most ophthalmologists rely on visual memory of similar cases, as a detailed analysis requires didactic approach and handling these images on active consoles rather than dealing with image printouts. This creates a huge potential for misdiagnosis in face of images suggestive of typical clinical scenarios. We aim to educate practicing ophthalmologists and post graduates on the fallacies of these tests where the obvious images belie the underlying disease. The tremendous importance of this approach in saving sight, therapeutic expenses and preventing patient litigation is overt. Our course will be image based case discussions rather than a theory class
