Is the eyecare industry facing an overwhelming practitioner shortage, or are we looking at the future of medicine through the wrong lens?
Join Scot Morris, OD, and Rehan Ahmed, MD, as they break down VSP’s “Practice of the Future” report and tackle a massive industry debate: how to handle an impending demand spike of 20 million additional annual eye exams.
In this episode, the hosts dive deep into the mind-bending potential of quantum computing, computing walls and how “cubits” and molecular simulations could revolutionize personalized treatments.
They also debate a bold, contrarian vision for the “Digital Doctor”—challenging traditional workflows, exploring remote diagnostic hubs, unbundling the routine eye exam and questioning whether the future truly demands more doctors, or just a radical shift in how care is delivered.
Tune in to see how AI, cutting-edge technology, and shifting care models are set to redefine the future of eyecare:
