    Abstract Medical students enter the medicine field with fresh ideas that may make them great entrepreneurs. However, medical students are uncertain about how the program directors of their desired residency would view them if they pursued business opportunities. We surveyed residency directors to obtain their views on medical students' entrepreneurship experiences. This viewpoint article aims to help American medical students who are interested in health innovations understand how their interests and entrepreneurial experiences may affect how they are viewed by residency program directors. Most program directors had favorable views of medical students with experience in entrepreneurship, and they believed that the innovative traits gained from such experiences would add to the program.

    Abstract Fishhook injuries commonly occur and may present as ophthalmic surgical emergencies. Choosing the appropriate removal technique is critical and depends on the involved extra- and intra-ocular structures and hook characteristics. We describe the case of a challenging fishhook removal where a novel surgical technique was developed. An eight-year-old boy presented with a full-thickness fishhook injury to the eyelid. During removal surgery, the thickness and density of the fishhook prevented surgical tools from transecting the shank. A novel approach was deemed necessary for safe removal, termed the clamp and retract technique. To our knowledge, this is its first documented use in the literature.

    Abstract Purpose of review: To review the most recent literature on the relationship of spontaneous cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak with idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) and considerations in management of these conditions.
    Recent findings: A link has been proposed between spontaneous CSF leak and IIH based on similar demographics, radiologic, and clinical findings in these patients, and on a plausible mechanism of skull base erosion in the setting of high CSF pressure over time. IIH patients with CSF leak may not present with classic IIH signs and symptoms as the leak can alleviate excess pressure; however, they may develop these after a leak is repaired. There may also be a higher risk of leak recurrence if intracranial hypertension is not treated postoperatively.
    Summary: A growing body of evidence supports an association between IIH and spontaneous CSF leak. However, this relationship is still not fully elucidated, and there is no current agreement on how to incorporate screening, management, or counseling guidelines for CSF leak into the care of IIH patients. There are also no specific guidelines for evaluation/management of IIH in patients with spontaneous CSF leak. Further interdisciplinary research is needed to explore this connection and to establish screening, evaluation, and management guidelines.

    Abstract Aim: To evaluate the clinical characteristics, demographics, and visual outcomes of patients with ocular syphilis at an urban hospital to increase awareness and assist in earlier diagnosis and treatment of the resurgent disease.
    Methods: A retrospective chart review was performed on patients with ICD-9 and ICD-10 diagnosis codes correlating with syphilis or syphilis-related ocular diseases between 2010 and 2019. Variables evaluated included age, gender, race, vision, ocular findings, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) status and men who have sex with men status, recreational drug and alcohol use.
    Results: Ocular syphilis was diagnosed in 40 patients (53 eyes) of a total of 229 patients who tested positive for syphilis
    Conclusion: Given the increased prevalence and protean manifestations of syphilis, early diagnosis and treatment are paramount. More studies on ocular syphilis are warranted to understand this resurging disease.

    Abstract Purpose: To describe the etiology, clinical features, and outcomes for a large contemporary cohort of children presenting with glaucoma at a tertiary referral center.
    Methods: The medical records of patients presenting to Boston Children's Hospital from January 2014 to July 2019 with a diagnosis of childhood glaucoma were retrospectively reviewed. Data regarding etiology, treatment, and visual and anatomic outcomes were collected; visual acuity outcomes were analyzed by laterality and diagnosis categories, using the Childhood Glaucoma Research Network (CGRN) classifications.
    Results: A total of 373 eyes of 246 patients (51% males) diagnosed with glaucoma before 18 years of age were identified. Mean follow-up was 7.04 ± 5.61 years; 137 cases were bilateral. The mean age at diagnosis was 4.55 ± 5.20 years. The most common diagnoses were glaucoma following cataract surgery (GFCS, 36.5%) and primary congenital glaucoma (PCG, 29.0%). Overall, 164 eyes (44.0%) underwent at least one glaucoma surgery. Intraocular pressure (IOP) was ≤21 mm Hg with or without glaucoma medications in 300 eyes (80.4%) at the last follow-up visit. Poor final best-corrected visual acuity (≤20/200) was found in 110 eyes; patients with poor final visual acuity tended to have poor visual acuity at presentation. The most common reason for poor vision was amblyopia. Uncontrolled IOP was an uncommon cause for vision loss.
    Conclusions: Childhood glaucoma can be challenging to manage, but poor vision usually results from amblyopia or presence of other ocular abnormalities or syndromes rather than glaucomatous optic neuropathy.

    Abstract Shared Medical Appointments (SMAs) are patient-centered care tools designed to administer patient counseling and education, typically delivered individually, in a group setting. SMAs are effective in facilitating peer-learning, resulting in improvement in knowledge and health behavior. This study aimed to implement what we know of as the first ophthalmology SMA done in the United States. We evaluated the implementation feasibility, patient and provider experience, changes in patient knowledge, and provider stress. Five glaucoma patients who expressed issues with adherence during their clinic visit at Boston Medical Center (BMC) who were interested in the SMA were recruited. Patients and staff had a positive experience with the SMA. There was a marked increase in patient glaucoma knowledge and a decrease in average staff member stress level score during the SMA. From all standpoints, including billing and management, we conclude that SMA implementation is feasible in ophthalmology departments in academic settings.
