Message from the Chair

August 2020

 
Dear colleagues,

Hope you are enjoying the summer heat and managing to get some rest from all the stressors that have plagued us in the last few months.  It’s hard to believe that in a couple of weeks, all the academic programs will resume; this newsletter highlights some of the events occurring at the end of our last academic year.

I am so pleased to congratulate Edsel Ing and Helen Dimaras on their promotions to full and associate professor, respectively. These are very significant academic milestones.

Alex Kaplan has taken over the reigns as Alumni Director, and working with Jason Noble and Harmeet Gill, will continue to strengthen our connections with our alumni.  Many thanks to Amandeep Rai for his work in this position.  Amandeep stepped down from this role to accept his position as associate Program Director.

Ken Eng will continue to Chair the Practice Plan Committee which is comprised of the Chairs of the Hospital Finance Committees.  The task of this committee is sustainable funding of clinician scientists in DOVS.  Such funding will allow us to expand the number of clinician scientists on faculty.  A big welcome to Stephan Ong Tone who returns to DOVS as a clinician scientist; he leads the way in this expansion.   We will also look to expand our Clinician investigator program within the residency to train future clinician scientists for Toronto and the rest of Canada.

Our Grand Rounds will restart on Sept 11 at 7:30am.  These will be virtual Zoom rounds (as most our rounds and meetings will be for the rest of 2020).

See you then!

Postgraduate Education Report


by: Dr. John Lloyd
The arrival of COVID-19 to Toronto caused many disruptions to all of us both personally and professionally. Our residency program was no exception. At the onset of the pandemic shut down, we responded by shifting our residents to 24 hour on-call shifts. Our faculty shut their offices down except for urgent patients and operating rooms were closed except for emergencies. We wished to protect our residents from a possible group exposure that might require numerous residents at a site or even across the whole program to self-isolate. Patient volumes were dramatically reduced, and the system worked well. We wish to provide special thanks to the PGY5 residents who joined in to help the resident teams at each site. The PGY5s were about to begin their Royal College study leave period – but COVID also forced the postponement of the Royal College exams until the fall of 2020.
 
Grand rounds and resident academic half-day teaching were initially cancelled, but special thanks are due to Dr. Amandeep Rai for becoming a rapid master of the Zoom online webinar platform and getting both running again virtually in short order. In fact, attendance at these events was never better! Invitations were sent nationally and internationally for ophthalmologists both in-training and in-practice to join the sessions. Grand rounds were temporarily time-shifted to noon to accommodate a wide range of time zones across Canada and even the world. Our sessions had a Canada-wide audience as well as attendees from the Caribbean, Middle East, USA and Europe – with grand rounds reaching upwards of 300 attendees. Special thanks are also due to Dr. Allan Slomovic for arranging special COVID-related grand rounds with guest speakers from infectious disease, emergency medicine and ophthalmology (both local and international). Several subspecialty groups also formed online weekly rounds to help remain connected during the pandemic.
 
Although we are moving through various stages of re-opening as a city and a province, we anticipate that grand rounds and resident academic half-day will remain virtual for the foreseeable future. Resident teaching has continued via Zoom online during the summer, and grand rounds will resume in September 2020. “Zoom” has now become a part of our everyday vocabulary!
 
Our end of the academic year graduation celebration was another casualty of the pandemic. Originally, we considered cancelling the event completely because our PGY5 residents preferred an in-person event. However, we soon realized that this failed to adequately address the needs of our fellows – most of whom would not be available to return to Toronto for a combined graduation event in 2021. We went ahead with a virtual graduation ceremony in June which allowed us to both celebrate the accomplishments of our fellows and announce the resident awards (which are helpful to our trainees as they apply for fellowships and jobs).  We are all very much looking forward to an in-person and hopefully mask-less combined graduation event next year for our resident graduates of 2020 and 2021. Dr. El-Defrawy has promised an extra-large and extra-special venue for the most important event of the year!
 
We are very proud of all our graduating residents and this year all are fellowship-bound! It has been a particularly trying time for them as they all faced a delay in taking the Royal College certification exams, and some were unable to begin their fellowships as planned. Drs. Al Shaker, Ballios and Zhang were all able to move on to their new roles in July. Dr. Rebecca Stein eventually managed to wrangle the necessary paperwork for her New York State Licence despite very unhelpful bureaucracies on both sides of the border (an impressive feat indeed!). Both Dr. Basilious and Dr. Goldfarb are on track to begin their fellowships in the fall of this year.
 
Also, a reminder to everyone that the Royal College review of our residency program is scheduled for this fall. It will occur virtually in an online format over one or two days sometime during the period between November 22 and December 4, 2020. We encourage all faculty, especially those in leadership positions, to be available during this period. All residents should also endeavour to be available during this time frame.
 
We hope everyone is having a lovely summer and we wish everyone a safe and healthy return to work during this ongoing pandemic.
 

GRADUATING CLASS 2020

SARAH AL SHAKER
Sarah is staying in Toronto to pursue a fellowship in cornea, external disease and refractive surgery. Her mentors are Drs. Chan, Chew, Rootman, Singal and Slomovic. Both she and her husband are very pleased to extend their time in Toronto – and our department is thrilled to have her.

BRIAN BALLIOS
Brian successfully navigated the COVID-related obstacles to arrive in Boston, Massachusetts to begin his fellowship in inherited retinal degenerations. His fellowship takes place at both Harvard and Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary. His primary supervisors are Drs. Pierce, Comander and Huckfeldt.

ALFRED BASILIOUS
Pandemic related slowdowns caused Alfred to delay his fellowship start until September. He is excited to undertake training in the sub-specialty of cornea from Dr. Mona Dagher and her team at the University of Montreal. He will also have a chance to practice his French!

JEREMY GOLDFARB
He has experienced some undesirable delays due to COVID and is currently practising comprehensive ophthalmology in Toronto at Mount Sinai & Bridgepoint Hospitals as well as Clarity Eye Institute. I love that his work includes teaching optics to the PGY2 residents! Jeremy is eager to begin his fellowship this November in Houston, Texas. He will be training in oculoplastics at MD Anderson under the supervision of Dr. Bita Esmaeli and her group.

REBECCA STEIN
After dealing with some very unhelpful bureaucracies in both Ontario and New York, Rebecca is delighted to report that she has begun her training with Drs. Eric Donnenfeld and Henry Perry in Long Island, NY. Her fellowship is in cornea and refractive surgery.

ANGELA ZHANG
Fortunately, Angela’s transition to the Maritimes was relatively unaffected by the coronavirus. She is happily completing her fellowship training in glaucoma in Halifax now. Her supervisors at Dalhousie University are Drs. Nicolela, Shuba, Rafuse and Eadie.

Fellowship Report


by: Dr. Navdeep Nijhawan & Julie Thomson
The University of Toronto Fellowship Training Program is the largest and most diverse one in the country offering 20 fellowships in Tertiary care sub-specialty areas. Trainees from all corners of the globe pursue further education in our department because of the international reputation of our preceptors.

The pandemic presented a number of challenges for both incoming and outgoing fellows, preceptors, faculty and staff. Through it all, our fellows stepped up to ensure that the department ran smoothly and that patients received timely care.  A number of fellows extended their stays in the department, providing much needed patient care, research and other contributions. Our department is greatly indebted to all the professionalism, hard work and dedication that our fellows have provided. We would also like to thank Dr. Tanya Trinh for the tremendous contributions made while Chief Fellow 2019-2020.

With the restrictions placed on social gatherings, our Fellowship graduation ceremony was held virtually this past June. The event provided an opportunity for colleagues, friends and family members to connect online, celebrating the outstanding achievements of our graduates.  The ceremony was well-received and attended. Thank you to all who participated and helped to make our unprecedented graduation ceremony a success.

In July, Dr. Parnian Arjmand was elected Chief Fellow for the 2020-2021 academic year.  As a surgical retina fellow, Parnian has been working closely with other fellows both at the UHN- TWH and Sunnybrook sites, and is also getting to know SMH retina fellows through mutual rounds. Please help me in welcoming Parnian to her new role.

This academic year, we welcome fellows from North and South America, The Caribbean, Europe, Asia and Australia. Our fellows balance their hectic schedules providing a pivotal role in serving our community, training residents and medical students, participating in research and learning new skills that they will take back to their home institutions. They truly are the ambassadors of DOVS.

On September 21, we will host a virtual Fellowship Development and Welcome Event. This will provide an opportunity for fellows and preceptors to introduce themselves and discuss relevant topics in an informal setting. Throughout the year the fellows will have the opportunity to attend additional events highlighting some of the challenges of coping with work life balance, mental health, and research.

We are also excited about having the following new fellows joining our department this year:

PGY-2s are now in our Ophthalmology clinics
Our new PGY-2s have now started in our ophthalmology clinics; a big welcome to all of them, it's good to have you home!

One of our residents, Dr. Tina Felfeli has joined the Clinician Investigator Program (CIP) at University of Toronto in pursuit of a PhD degree in Clinical Epidemiology and Health Care Research through the Dalla Lana School of Public Health. During her full-time graduate studies over the next three years, she will be engaged in taking courses and conducting research along with several other residents from various medical and surgical specialties within PGME who are also a part of the CIP program.   Her research interests include application of biomarkers and imaging technology in prediction models for retinal diseases. Her focus will also expand to the use of clinical databases to evaluate delivery of care within the field of ophthalmology. Following the successful defence of her thesis, Tina will be returning to full-time clinical duties for the remainder of her residency training. 

Dr. Parnian Arjmand elected as DOVS Chief Fellow


by: Dr. Navdeep Nijhawan
On behalf of the Fellowship Committee, I would like to announce the newly elected Chief Fellow for the 2020- 2021 academic year Dr. Parnian Arjmand.

A call for nominations was held from May 22 - June 22, 2020 during which time, we received expressions of interest from two extremely strong candidates. The role of Chief Fellow includes planning fellowship development dinner meetings, assisting in planning the fellowship committee meetings, actively advocate for fellowship-related issues and provide support for fellows in hardship. In addition, the Chief Fellow provides entries for the DOVS newsletter, provide support to the DOVS Fellowship Program Director and administration and attending RPC meetings.

As a surgical retina fellow, Parnian has been working closely with other fellows both at the UHN- TWH and Sunnybrook sites, and is also getting to know SMH retina fellows through mutual rounds. Recently, Parnian initiated a wellness project funded by DOVS QI grants with Dr. Radha Kohly's supervision to assess and improve resident and fellow wellness during and after the COVID-19 pandemic.
 
We would also like to thank Dr. Tanya Trinh for the tremendous contributions made while Chief Fellow 2019-2020. Please join us in congratulating Parnian on her appointment.

Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) Learning Platform


by: Dr. Jason Kwok (PGY4)
A group of residents and faculty from the University of Toronto have created a website  (www.octcases.com) dedicated towards learning OCT. In addition to reviewing ocular anatomy using this imaging modality, the website also provides a systematic approach to tackling different types of OCT including but not limited to macula, retinal nerve fiber layer, ganglion cell complex, and anterior segment OCT. The website also contains a comprehensive atlas of ocular diseases (all cases from University of Toronto) with accompanying interactive cases containing multiple choice questions and detailed answers.
We highly encourage you to visit our website and to use it as a teaching tool when there are learners in your clinic.

Advancement News

Anne Marie Brune Estate Fund
The Department of Ophthalmology & Vision Sciences is named as one of the recipients of a most generous donation from the Estate of Anne Marie Brune

Giving back to the community was very important to Heinz and Anne Marie Brune. This inspired them to support three schools, McMaster, Waterloo and Toronto, to advance the human condition, which each of the schools does everyday – giving back to the community.

Heinz Brune and Anne Marie Lina Bülow (Buelow) were each born in Dortmund, Germany. Heinz Wilhelm Bruene was born on March 9, 1924, and Anne Marie was born on January 18, 1924. The name changes to Brune on identity documents and the application for Canadian citizenship. Each of them were successful at school with Heinz going into the technical field and Anne Marie going into the legal secretarial field. Heinz enlisted in the German Air Force during the Second World War and flew many missions with his squadron. Later, he was one of the early jet pilots flying the Henkle jets. He was shot down but survived. Reports say that he and other members of his squadron joined the Allies as the war ended.

They married in Dortmund on March 8, 1952, after the war, migrated to Canada in the mid-50s, and settled in the Burlington and Hamilton area. Heinz was a straight forward business man with a talent for designing and manufacturing heat treating equipment. He established Hamilton Thermal Specialties Limited in 1965 and drew customers for his equipment from U.S., Italy, China, England, but mainly Ontario and Canada.

In the early 1990s, his longterm employee, Tony Connell bought Heinz’s Company. They remained lifelong friends.  Eventually Heinz’s Company was purchased by Fuel Applications Limited.

Upon retirement Heinz and Anne Marie relocated to a condominium in Burlington where they remained for 16 years, prior to moving into a retirement home also in Burlington. Heinz, in the last three to five years of his life, developed a progressive Alzheimer's condition, which, along with other complications, all contributed to his ultimate passing away on September 13, 2018.

Anne Marie had a progressive macular degeneration of her vision for which she sought treatment in Burlington, Oakville, Waterloo, and Germany. Ultimately, she became blind, and with the passing of Heinz made her life extremely difficult and sad. Having her health decline, she passed away on June 2, 2019, in the retirement home.

Heinz and Anne Marie had no children, and their families remained in Germany.  Initially, during the business active time of Heinz and Anne Marie, their friendship circle was significant. However, with retirement, the circle of friends became smaller.

On their grave monument at Woodland, their plaque translated back into English reads as follows:

"Over heights and depths led the way of our work rich lives, sun and shadow, love and hope and several setbacks were constant companions on our toilsome path which led us in advanced age to mutual security and contentment, the long path through life ended, at this quiet place, where we rest in peace, in the hands of the Creator."

Births and Weddings

Congratulations to Dr. Graham Belovay and his family on welcoming their newborn son, Marcus Theodore Belovay, on July 12th, 2020 at 35 weeks, 5 days, weighing in at 5 lbs 7 oz, at North York General Hospital. 

Congratulations to Mano Chandrakumar (Research Manager at Kensington Health) and Thadchana on their wedding day on July 1st, 2020.
