We enjoyed hosting an engaging educational event focused on the evolving treatment landscape for patients with thyroid eye disease (TED), including Lumvoa™ (veligrotug-vvze) from Viridian Therapeutics.

Thank you to Dr. Nicolas Biro for leading the conversation, and to our local Chicago Lumvoa™ representative, Alan Studant, for joining us.

Dr. Kevin Kovach and Dr. Marius Gradianu also shared their first-hand experience utilizing Lumvoa™ with Kovach Eye Institute patients with TED. It was also a great opportunity for those in attendance to meet Dr. Ji Lee, who joined our practice three months ago.

We’re grateful for opportunities like these to connect, learn, and continue advancing patient care together.

We were pleased to host an engaging educational event focused on the future of bio-interventional care and the evolving role of AlloFlo Uveo in glaucoma treatment.

AlloFlo Uveo is a bio-interventional implant designed to support the eye’s natural drainage pathway and improve aqueous outflow, offering another treatment option for patients with glaucoma.

Thank you to Dr. Kevin Kovach and Dr. @mariusgradianu for sharing their expertise, and to Dr. and the optometrists who joined us and contributed to the conversation.

We’re grateful for opportunities to connect, share knowledge, and continue advancing patient care.

We're so excited that Glaukos has partnered with NBA Champion Stephen Curry to raise awareness for keratoconus (KC). We are proud to support this initiative that encourages more people to recognize the signs and symptoms of KC, ask questions, and prioritize their eye health. Keratoconus, or KC, is a sight-threatening eye disease in which the cornea weakens and thins over time, causing blurry or distorted vision. With early diagnosis and treatment intervention, it's possible to preserve more of your vision. We remain committed to advancing care with teamwork, innovation, and a focus on patients.

At Kovach Eye Institute, caring for patients with corneal conditions like keratoconus is a major part of what we do — don't let KC change your vision! Call our team today at 630-642-2257.

AND yes, it can even happen if you may have had LASIK in your 20s! In fact, it happens to nearly everyone eventually, but here's the good news: reading glasses aren't your only option.

At Kovach Eye Institute, we offer a range of solutions tailored to your lifestyle. Whether you're tired of losing your readers or just ready for a longer-term solution, we're here to help you find the right fit.
