In the last episode of the podcast, we heard from several attendees of the 2025 NANOS meeting in Tucson, Arizona. One meeting session in particular resonated with many attendees, sparking, deep, personal reflections on their approach to this important topic. Co-created and co-led by Drs. Melissa Ko and Guy Jirawuthiworavong,  the sessions was titled The Science and Clinical Practice of Supporting Patients Through Vision Loss: Therapy When There is No Cure.

This unique symposium tackled a question nearly every physician has faced: what to do when you’ve done all you can to heal, but can do no more?

Today, we’re taking a deep dive into an important conversation—one that helps put things into perspective and challenges us to think beyond tests, prescriptions, and procedures, and remember the full person behind the patient.
