Independent educational experiences designed to elevate clinical thinking, reveal hidden clinical relationships, and improve patient care.
The goal of continuing education should be more than earning credit hours. It should improve patient care, elevate clinical reasoning, and deepen our understanding of biology.
Different educational goals require different educational experiences. Whether you're looking for practical clinical updates, advanced clinical reasoning, or a deeper understanding of the biological principles that shape disease and healing, myODCE offers a learning pathway designed to meet you where you are—and help you continue growing.
Clinical Essentials provide the practical knowledge needed for today's patient encounters. Essential disease states, relevant functional anatomy, evidence-based diagnosis, and contemporary management principles form the foundation of every course. Goal: equip clinicians with immediately applicable knowledge they can use in practice tomorrow morning.
New clinical content added regularly.
Healing the Ocular Surface.
A practical clinical framework for integrating amniotic membrane therapy into everyday optometric practice — indications, product selection, and patient counseling.
COPE Category: Anterior Segment
Ocular Allergy in Clinical Practice.
A focused clinical overview of ocular allergic disease — diagnosis, differential, and evidence-based management.
COPE Category: Anterior Segment
Beyond Reading Glasses.
Understanding the pharmacologic options for presbyopia management and their role in modern optometric practice.
COPE Category: Anterior Segment
Clinical Considerations for Swimmers and Divers.
Exploring the ocular effects of aquatic exposure and the clinical implications for contact lens wearers and patients with ocular surface disease.
COPE Category: Anterior Segment
Masterclasses move beyond facts to explore how experienced clinicians think. Through systems-based reasoning, case analysis, and deeper clinical integration, these courses challenge assumptions, refine decision-making, and elevate everyday practice. Goal: help clinicians become more thoughtful, more confident, and more effective in the care they provide.
When Two Management Philosophies Compete for the Same Patient.
A systems-based examination of the clinical tension between IOP management and ocular surface disease — and how the tools used to treat one can undermine the other.
COPE Category: General
From Surveillance to Dysregulation.
Understanding how adaptive immunity shapes ocular surface health and disease.
COPE Category: Anterior Segment
A Systems Approach to Ocular Inflammation.
Comprehensive disease-state education covering classification, pathophysiology, diagnostic workup, and evidence-based management of uveitic conditions.
COPE Category: Anterior Segment
Recurrence Biology and Ocular Surface Ecosystem Stability.
Understanding Demodex within the broader context of ocular surface disease and restoration.
COPE Category: Anterior Segment
Emerging Therapeutics and Clinical Applications.
Exploring the science and clinical application of regenerative approaches in ocular surface disease and beyond.
COPE Category: Anterior Segment
Discover What Biology Has Been Saying All Along
From the Latin revelatio — "an unveiling; the disclosure of what was previously hidden."
Revelatio explores the deeper biological principles that shape disease, healing, and clinical decision-making. Rather than presenting isolated facts, each course uncovers the organizing truths already present within the biology, revealing relationships that often remain hidden beneath traditional disease-based teaching.
These courses also explore some of the personal and professional barriers that prevent us from recognizing those relationships—not through criticism, but through discovery.
Their Purpose
Not simply to learn more. To see differently.
Once a truth is genuinely revealed, it cannot be unseen.
Explore Revelatio
Environmental Chemistry, Microbiology, and Aquatic Keratoconjunctivitis.
How disinfection chemistry, microbial adaptation, and tear film vulnerability converge in aquatic environments — and what it means for the clinicians who treat them.
COPE Category: Anterior Segment
When Recovery Fails: Breaking the Downward Spiral of Ocular Surface Disease.
Exploring recovery failure, microbial ecology, and ecosystem restoration in ocular surface disease.
COPE Category: Anterior Segment
Understanding Glaucoma Beyond Intraocular Pressure.
A systems-based framework exploring vascular, structural, mechanical, inflammatory, and clearance factors influencing optic nerve vulnerability.
