The Florida Lions Eye Clinic is looking for ophthalmologists around the state that are interested in volunteering to provide free eye care to needy children and families in Florida. The commitment is at your discretion--you decide on how many patients you would like to see a month.

Forms

There has been a recent change in the Florida law regarding co-management of patients. The new law took effect on July 1, 2013. The Florida Society of Ophthalmology (FSO) and its general counsel have worked closely with OMIC to develop two sample forms to aid you in compliance with the new law.

At the FSO Board of Directors meeting held this past June, the Board adopted the American Academy of Ophthalmology’s position on the use of medicinal marijuana for the treatment of glaucoma.

Forms

Because Florida law currently fails to describe the recognized risks of cataract surgery, a substantial number of "recognized risks" associated with cataract surgery continue to be improperly reported to regulators as "Code 15" adverse incidents.

Effective January 1, 2023, OMIC insureds who are FSO members in good standing will receive a 5% discount upon renewal. OMIC insureds can then earn an additional 5% discount by attending an OMIC lecture at the Masters in Ophthalmology meeting or by completing an online OMIC course. OMIC insureds that attend the live event, will be required to sign or scan in to prove attendance. If an OMIC insured attends an OMIC lecture at the Masters in Ophthalmology or any other partner society meeting, and has not indicated their society membership, they will be awarded a 5% discount.
