Cost effective Suprachoroidal Shunt with Daniel Laroche, ep 34
A talk with Daniel Laroche on his low cost solution for suprachoroidal shunts.
Intro: Welcome to Talking About Glaucoma episode #34 for May 7, 2021. Here’s another recording from the vaults that is getting to see the light of day. It is one of 3 episodes recorded in person back in late February 2020 just before Covid de-railed us all from business as usual. My apologies for the sound quality on this one; I was experimenting with a BOYA dual lapel mic, recording directly into my phone: big mistake! Future recordings from episode 37 onward will go back to my professional recording gear.

In this episode, I talk with Daniel Laroche. We have crossed paths for many years at conferences having both started our practices at the same time, but this was the first time we sat down to record our conversation. Daniel Laroche is Director of Glaucoma Services and President of Advanced Eyecare of New York. He is affiliated with the New York Eye and Ear Infirmary, and Assistant Professor of Ophthalmology at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine, New York. I'm Rob Schertzer, a Vancouver, Canada based glaucoma specialist, podcaster and HealthIT expert, and we're...talking about glaucoma.

Production information:
This episode was recorded February 28, 2020 during the Annual Meeting of the American Glaucoma Society in Washington, DC. In a first for me, I recorded direct to a Huawei Mate20 Pro running Easy Voice Recorder Pro using a BOYA BY-M3D dual lapel microphone. As you will hear, this was a mistake but unfortunately I used this same recording setup for the next two episodes as well. After that, I’ll go back to my Shure SM58 microphones and Marantz recorder! Mixing and sound levelling were finally completed May 5, 2021 on an M1 MacMini using Hindenberg Journalist Pro software and Flux Software sound processing. Narration was overdubbed using a HEIL PR40 microphone.
