Event Overview
The Dunedin Slit-Lamp MasterClass is an advanced clinical education evening focused on anterior segment pathology using live patient demonstrations. This highly practical session is designed to strengthen real-world diagnostic skills by correlating slit-lamp findings with clinical decision-making.
Participants will observe structured slit-lamp examinations performed on live patients, highlighting key pathological features and subtle clinical signs that are often difficult to appreciate in static images or textbooks.
Learning Objectives
Attendees will:
Improve slit-lamp examination technique and efficiency
Recognise common and uncommon anterior segment pathologies
Differentiate benign findings from sight-threatening disease
Enhance confidence in diagnosis and referral decisions
Integrate clinical signs with patient history for better management planning
