Recordings will also remain available through the year for attendees who registered for the live program. 20/Happy began its rollout in August 2020 with a new module being released with live faculty discussion biweekly through December 2020. David Chang, MD, who guided development of the master class with co-director Kendall Donaldson, MD, described the accomplishment of the pro- gram. "For the first time, ASCRS has produced a compre- hensive curriculum in refractive cataract surgery, which goes beyond the basics to help surgeons master patient evaluation, selection, education, and problem solving," Dr. Chang said. "Eighty international faculty provided their expertise through a combination of lectures, interactive dis- cussion, and audience Q&A. The content is organized and archived into nine separate modules so that surgeons can learn at their own pace and refer back to specific lectures and topics when needed." Each recorded module features expert presentations and panel discussion. Breakout rooms with live "ask the experts" questions from attendees were recorded and are available for viewers as well. Ejaz Husain, MD, Des Moines, Iowa, attended the program and earned a certificate of completion. He de- scribed it as "a tremendous opportunity to learn about new advances and to learn from experts on how to improve and reinforce our practices with brilliant pearls of wisdom from the superb American and international faculty." "I think it provided comprehensive coverage of the issues we tackle within our practices every day, and it pro- vided effective solutions to addressing patient problems," Dr. Husain said.
