This week we had the first @uiowaeye global ophthalmology journal club spearheaded by @MatharuKanwal! Bittersweet since this is my last journal club with Dr. Peskina before she finishes her fellowship 🥹

The Affordable Care Act increased insurance coverage, but did not result in decreased emergency department reliance for ophthalmic conditions. Addtl measures beyond expanding insurance coverage may be necessary to increase access to care. @TahreemMir7 ow.ly/x4gm50JRnN2
