  • 155: CataractCoach Podcast 155: David Granet MD
    Mar 15 2026

    Our guest is Professor David Granet who reveals the mind-blowing speed of AI development in medicine, noting 50 new developments occurred in less than a month. There is a 100% certainty that AI will change your ophthalmology career and you need to prepare for that. Patients are already engaging with AI using it for everything from understanding diagnoses and procedure options to insurance claims. However, the adoption of this technology introduces critical legal and ethical challenges, creating a potential no-win scenario where physicians could be held liable both for using or not using AI, compounded by the lack of regulation for software updates.

    Mar 1 2026

    Our podcast guest today is Dr Satya V. Reddy who is an anterior segment surgeon in Louisiana, USA and we talk about one of the most important issues that you will face in your life: how to balance building a practice with having a family (and personal) life that you can enjoy. I have struggled with this and have made many mistakes. Now we realize that the concept of "delayed gratification" may not be the best approach. We talk about the challenges and how to figure out the right recipe and balance for you and your life. I know you will find this very useful.

  • 151: CataractCoach Podcast 151: Rudrani Banik MD
    Feb 15 2026

    This podcast taught me so much about integrative and functional medicine, which is something that is not really taught in ophthalmology residency. Dr Rudrani Banik is a neuro-ophthalmologist who has a deep expertise in ocular nutrition and she is coordinating an anonymous Ocular Nutrition Survey so we can identify the gaps in nutrition education for ophthalmologists. She has also written two books on the topic: Beyond Carrots- Best Foods For Eye Health A to Z and its companion cookbook, Dr. Rani's Visionary Kitchen. She also is the founder of The Eye Summit™ 2026 which is taking place online May 11-15, 2026 and is free.

  • 150: CataractCoach Podcast 150: Keith Walter MD
    Feb 8 2026

    About 30 years ago the initial clinical trials and studies for the FDA approval of LASIK were done and our podcast guest was there and a key member of that team. Professor Keith Walter MD has been involved in advancing refractive surgery, both corneal and lenticular, for three decades. He is also the surgeon who taught us all that operating room temperature and humidity control is critical for excimer laser refractive accuracy. In this podcast we have a great discussion about the early days of corneal refractive surgery and how you can do better surgery. I'm sure you will enjoy it.

  • 148: CataractCoach Podcast 148: Bill Bond MD
    Jan 25 2026

    At many ophthalmic meetings over the years, particularly at the AECOS Aspen meeting (formerly the Dulaney AIRS: Aspen Invitational Refractive Symposium), Bill Bond MD presented his Bond Report which was a crowd favorite. In this presentation he discusses amazing life lessons that we all tend to learn the hard way over time. Similar to the comedian talking about life truths and everyone has a good laugh because of how true they are, the Bond Report did the same with an ophthalmology slant. This podcast is full of wisdom and laughs and I think you'll enjoy it. You can catch his Dr Bond Report on YouTube - I'm a subscriber!
