Abstract Details

Purpose:

To see the evolution of practice styles of French ophthalmologists

Setting:

After David Leaming MD who started surveying ASCRS members in 1986, I have been surveying French ophthalmology since 1997 and I present here the results of the twentieth French survey about practice styles and preferences of French cataract and refractive surgeons.

Methods:

2986 Emails were sent to the French ophthalmologists who are in the SAFIR (French Cataract and Refractive Surgery Society) database. I received 488 answers, which is 16.34%, much better than the 12.55% of last year.

Results:

All the aspects of French cataract and refractive surgery are studied, and also general points concerning the practice of Ophthalmology in France

Conclusions:

This is the 20th survey on French ophthalmologists�â�€�™ preferences during cataract and refractive surgery, with comparison with former surveys.
