An ownership role in the surgical journey.
Sponsored by iOR Group
Office-based surgery is opening a new path for optometry practices by bringing a surgical suite, and a surgeon, into your own office. Join iOR Group CEO Tony Burns and a panel of ODs who have built this model for a candid 60-minute discussion on how it actually works. You'll see how leasing or owning a suite and partnering with a surgeon can add a new service line, support practice growth, and keep you involved in your patients' care from diagnosis through recovery.
The revenue is already sitting in your charts.
Many of your patients are surgical candidates, and office-based surgery lets you stay part of that next step. By bringing a surgical suite into your practice and partnering with a surgeon to operate, you support continuity of care, strengthen retention, and open a new revenue stream alongside how you already work. In one hour, you'll see how ODs are doing it.
