7 Ophthalmology Management, February 2014 The question arises, how will ophthalmologists survive in this new environment that emphasizes the need for measuring our outcomes, resource use and patient quality of life? In a tip of the hat to what may turn out to be the AAO s finest hour, one answer may be IRIS, Intelligent Research in Sight. This is ophthalmology s first major comprehensive clinical registry. Larry E. Patterson, MD

8 Ocular Surgery News, March 10, 2014 To jump to the bottom line: Every ophthalmologist should not just walk but run to sign up for this program. Not only will it provide great value to the individual ophthalmologist and his or her practice, but it is critical to the success and future standing of ophthalmology in the U.S. as a whole. Richard L. Lindstrom, MD
