  • Sumário

  • In this episode I break down the latest research on Ozempic and its potential link to NAION (non-arteritic ischemic optic neuropathy), a rare condition that can lead to sudden vision loss. I also reflects on UnitedHealthcare’s continued public relations missteps, including its latest legal threats against physicians and anybody on social media, speaking out about the company. Takeaways: The Ozempic and Blindness Connection: Dr. Flannery explains a recent observational study that suggests Ozempic may increase the risk of NAION, a condition that affects the optic nerve. However, the data isn’t conclusive yet, and more research is needed before drawing firm conclusions. Uveitis and the Syphilis Conversation: If you have eye inflammation (uveitis), your doctor may need to test for syphilis—leading to some of the most awkward conversations in ophthalmology. Dr. Flannery explains why this is necessary and how it helps with proper diagnosis. UnitedHealthcare’s PR Nightmare: The insurance giant recently hired a law firm to threaten doctors on social media, proving once again that they’re more focused on silencing criticism than improving patient care. Does Everyone Need Cataract Surgery at 60? Not necessarily! While cataracts affect nearly everyone with age, surgery should only be performed when they significantly impact vision. Dr. Flannery explains how doctors decide when it’s time for surgery. Do We Really Need a Spleen? Dr. Flannery debates whether two livers would be better than one liver and a spleen, adding yet another hilarious (but oddly insightful) take on human anatomy. — To Get Tickets to Wife & Death: You can visit Glaucomflecken.com/live We want to hear YOUR stories (and medical puns)!
