Case of conjunctivitis associated with #monkeypox virus (PCR positive conjunctival swabs). This raises the possibility of transmission via contact during eye exams. Healthcare professionals should be aware of this and employ adequate protection. https://t.co/iFwgPfyQOw

@WraggPeat @scottoakes13 Wow! This is an excellent demo of how a pneumo-orbit can form! 🤓 I certainly prefer a CT Orbits to aid diagnosis as pneumo-orbit can be sight-threatening! 👀 We therefore ask patients to NOT blow their noses when we think they’ve got an orbital fracture!!!

@harikanesh @ManchesterREH @RCOphth Thanks! It was a big team effort lead by 2 super trainees using Zoom breakout rooms to simulate Viva/OSCE stations. Examiners had slides to screen-share in each virtual room. The host moved trainees around each room online and kept time on screen. Challenging, but worth it!

[James Laybourne @j_laybourne]

Virtual clinics fully established, and a virtual mock OSCE for our #ophthalmology trainees achieved @ManchesterREH today! Well done to all and good luck for the real @RCOphth exams! 🤓
