In this special episode filmed in Paris at EURETINA 2025, I am joined by a very special guest, my fellow Vision Academy and Barometer Program member Prof. Adrian Koh, who is founding partner and senior consultant at the Eye & Retina Surgeons, Camden Medical Centre, Singapore, and Director of Retinal Centre International.

Tune in as we dive into the current understanding of the well-being of healthcare professionals (HCPs) working in ophthalmology, and introduce the HCP Barometer Survey, the first comprehensive and holistic analysis of the complexities of HCP well-being in ophthalmology, from professional fulfilment to the impact of clinic capacity constraints.

If you are a practicing specialist, fellow, resident, postgraduate, nurse, or technician working in ophthalmology who regularly interacts with and provides care for patients, please click here to complete the survey and tell us about your experiences.
