Dr Jacqui Beltz, ophthalmologist, cornea, cataract and refractive surgeon from Melbourne, Australia joins me for a chat. You may know Jacqui from her many presentations and courses at meetings around the world about her state of the art corneal surgery and more recently small aperture IOLs, or you may have attended her very own conference, GenEYE! Jacqui is director of training in the state of Victoria and has revolutionised teaching of surgery with the introduction of high performance techniques more often seen on the sports field. I’m sure you will agree Jacqui Beltz deserves the second look and hopefully you will also pick up some tips for a safe return to the operating theatre after a break.
