Plateau Iris with Shivani Kamat, ep 37
/This is the mp3 version. Starting with Episode 30, aside from minor sound quality differences, there is no longer a difference between the AAC and MP3 versions of my podcast. The additional artwork and chapter markers have been too time consuming and have not really been noticed by anyone! Enjoy the show.
Intro:

In this episode, I discuss Plateau Iris with Dr Shivani Kamat, Assistant Professor of Ophthalmology and Glaucoma Fellowship Program director at UT Southwestern. She also founded and co-chairs Women in Glaucoma. Today's discussion includes the difference between plateau iris configuration and syndrome, how to distinguish it from other glaucomas and treatment options.
