Rayner has released its latest Peer2Peer podcast, featuring two of Australia’s most respected ophthalmic surgeons, Dr Ben LaHood and Dr Michael Rossiter-Thornton, who sit down with Professor Michael Amon, the internationally acclaimed inventor of the Sulcoflex supplementary intraocular lens (IOL).
Hosted by Dr LaHood in Adelaide, this episode goes beyond the usual clinical conversation.
Rayner said the podcast boasted sharp insight and a healthy dose of humour, with the trio exploring how surgeons manage refractive surprises – those inevitable curveballs that follow cataract or lens surgery – and how the Sulcoflex lens offers a “safe, elegant solution” when the unexpected happens.
Prof Amon shares the story behind his invention of the Sulcoflex, now a trusted tool worldwide for enhancing visual outcomes.
Joined by Dr Rossiter-Thornton, who is based in Sydney and is known for his depth of refractive expertise, and utilising Dr LaHood’s candid, witty take on surgical life, Rayner said the episode delivers a masterclass in managing post-op unpredictability, while keeping the mood light and relatable.
“From surgical pearls to laugh-out-loud anecdotes, this is an episode that showcases the best of Australian ophthalmology: top-tier expertise, innovative thinking, and real conversations.”
The podcase is available now on YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts.
