لقد سألني الكثير منكم مؤخرًا عن القطرات الجديدة التي وافقت عليها إدارة الغذاء والدواء الأمريكية لعلاج طول النظر الشيخوخي. هذه القطرات مصممة لتحسين الرؤية القريبة للقراءة، مما يوفر خيارًا غير جراحي لمن يعانون من صعوبة التركيز المرتبطة بالعمر. ووفقًا للإعلان الرسمي من إدارة الغذاء والدواء، من المتوقع أن تكون متاحة في بلدنا خلال الأشهر القليلة القادمة. للمزيد من التفاصيل، يمكنكم قراءة المرجع هنا: https://ir.lenz-tx.com/news-events/press-releases/detail/39/lenz-therapeutics-announces-us-fda-approval-of-vizz-for-the-treatment-of-presbyopia?utm_source=chatgpt.com

לאחרונה שאלו אותי רבים מכם על הטיפות החדשות שאושרו על ידי ה-FDA לטיפול בפרסביופיה. הטיפות האלו נועדו לשפר את הראייה לקרוב עבור קריאה, ומהוות אופציה לא ניתוחית למי שחווה קושי במיקוד עקב הגיל. על פי ההודעה הרשמית של ה-FDA, הן צפויות להגיע אלינו בחודשים הקרובים. לפרטים נוספים, ניתן לקרוא כאן:

I’m honored to share that I’ve been invited back to 🇮🇹 Italy—where I completed my medical studies—to present my experiences on intrastromal corneal rings (ICRS) and CAIRS at the Italian National Congress of Ophthalmology.

It feels like a true full-circle moment, and I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to my dear friends Marco Lombardo and Cosimo Mazzotta who made this invitation possible and with whom I shared a session on . They also organized for me an Interview in an Italian TV.

Inspiring experience at WKC2 – the 2nd World Keratoconus Congress, organized by the International Keratoconus Society, which I am proud to have co-founded.

With nearly 250 participants from over 50 countries, the congress brought together leading experts, emerging voices, and passionate clinicians dedicated to improving the care of patients with keratoconus.

I had the privilege of directing a course on Intracorneal Ring Segments (ICRS) and sharing insights through presentations and panels . The atmosphere of collaboration, knowledge exchange, and innovation was truly energizing.

Grateful to all who attended and contributed to the success of this global event. Looking forward to seeing you all at WKC3 in Florence, April 2026

Grateful to have led a case-based expert panel on keratoconus at the joint congress of the International Keratoconus Society (IKS) and the Krasnov Institute in Moscow.

It was a pleasure to discuss real-world complexities and evolving treatment strategies in keratoconus alongside an inspiring group of international colleagues.

Looking forward to continuing the conversation at the 2nd World Keratoconus Congress (WKC2) in Athens, June 12–14, 2025 — a global gathering of minds shaping the future of corneal care.

מאמר שלנו שפורסם במגזין הבינלאומי לקרטוקונוס מראה : אי-אבחון מוקדם של קרטוקונוס עלול להוביל להחמרה בלתי הפיכה בראייה, במיוחד בקרב ילדים עם תסמונת דאון, הנמצאים בסיכון גבוה להתקדמות מהירה של המחלה. שילוב של קרנית דקה, נטייה לשפשוף עיניים וקושי באבחון מוקדם הופכים אוכלוסייה זו לפגיעה במיוחד. עם זאת, הצורך באבחון מוקדם חיוני גם עבור האוכלוסייה הכללית, שכן גילוי מאוחר מגביל את אפשרויות הטיפול.

חשוב להדגיש כי קרקטוקונוס מתפתח גם בקרב ילדים ובני נוער ללא תסמונת דאון, ולכן אבחון מוקדם חיוני לכלל האוכלוסייה. ככל שהמחלה מאובחנת בשלב מוקדם יותר, כך גדלים הסיכויים למנוע הידרדרות משמעותית בראייה.

בדיקות סקר תקופתיות, טכנולוגיות מתקדמות ומודעות מוגברת בקרב רופאים והורים יכולים למנוע הידרדרות ולאפשר התערבות בזמן, כגון קרוס-לינקינג, לעצירת התקדמות המחלה
