Dr. Daniel Epshtein is an assistant professor in the ophthalmology department of Mount Sinai Morningside in New York City. Previously, he held a position in a high-volume multispecialty ophthalmology practice where he supervised fourth-year optometry students as an adjunct assistant clinical professor of the SUNY College of Optometry. Dr. Epshtein’s research focuses on using the latest ophthalmic imaging technologies to elucidate ocular disease processes and to simplify equivocal clinical diagnoses. He developed and lectures in the perioperative care course at the SUNY College of Optometry. Dr. Epshtein writes and lectures on numerous topics including glaucoma, retinal disease, multimodal imaging, ocular surface disease, and perioperative care.

In this course, you will learn what a glaucoma suspect is, how to determine the risk level, and how to evaluate glaucomatous progression as well as gain an integrative understanding of fundus imaging, visual field, and OCT findings.
Evaluation of the elevated optic nerve head poses a particularly difficult clinical dilemma. Learn how OCT can detect anatomical changes and improve the clinician’s ability to distinguish papilledema from pseudopapilledema.
Glaucoma requires a thorough history and a full diagnostic ocular imaging panel before diagnosis. Use these methods to differentiate glaucoma from non-glaucomatous disease.
OCTA gets us closer to visualizing the primary pathology process in diabetic retinopathy. Learn how to utilize this technology to better manage our patients and reduce diabetic vision loss.
Take an in-depth look into neovascular age-related macular degeneration and examine why OCT has become integral to the management of all forms of AMD.
By 2030, in the USA alone, 3.6 million people are projected to have age-related macular degeneration. However, this potentially devastating disease often goes undiagnosed. To ensure this doesn't happen in your practice, read on to gain a deeper understanding of AMD.
To provide another stepping-stone to OCT mastery, we explore the complex nature of vitreomacular interface disease with regard to full macular holes.
Vitreomacular traction is difficult to diagnose clinically, particularly with funduscopy alone. Here, we walk through how to use OCT to spot vitreomacular traction.
To understand pathology, one must first truly understand normal anatomy and its variations. Here, we review the basics of normal OCT anatomy.
OCT imaging has revolutionized how we view and think about ocular disease, and the traditional 45-degree fundus photograph may soon be a relic of the past.
Many indications of ocular and systemic disease are often found within the far periphery of the retina, and conventional imaging tactics can often fall short in capturing these subtle, yet clinically significant findings. This course will cover the use of ultra-widefield HD 2.0 true color imaging in diagnosing and managing ocular disease.
This course will review the basics of OCT analysis with regards to retinal pathology, highlighting the identifying characteristics of retinal lesions as viewed by OCT.
In this case study, a patient presented complaining of central blurred vision in the right eye for one week. The diagnosis? Central serous chorioretinopathy. See how this OD arrived at the diagnosis, and the treatment options for CSCR.
This clinical case focuses on a diagnosis of macular telangiectasia type 2. Learn what to look for and other pertinent research on this condition!
Sickle cell maculopathy is an oft-overlooked complication in patients with sickle cell. It's crucial to conduct comprehensive examinations when it comes to any patient in order to avoid missing something.
