The first half of this session will be a Q&A facilitated by Dr. Suren Sanmugasunderam, a cataract and refractive eye surgeon who is also a clinical professor in the Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences at UBC. He has also previously served as a former president of the BC Society of Eye Physicians and Surgeons.
