 Ophthalmic block techniques have long been relegated to the ophthalmologist and the techniques for performing these regional blocks have been omitted from curricula in both nurse and physician anesthesia residency programs. Due to the increasing volume of ophthalmic procedures being performed, the ophthalmologists are now requesting anesthesia professionals provide this service. This course is designed to provide the didactics of pharmacology, toxicity, anatomy, physiology, techniques, management, and complications of ophthalmic regional blocks.

Furthermore, by way of individual “hands-on” practice under the guidance of a qualified instructor, using an anatomical model, the participant will become familiar with the actual techniques of performing the ophthalmic block techniques.
