  • The Intersection of Dry Eye and Allergies
    Apr 2 2026
    Co-hosts Jackie Garlich, OD, FAAO, and Jessilin Quint, OD, FAAO, invite Mila Ioussifova, OD, CNS, FAAO, FOWNS, back on the To the Point podcast to talk about in-office allergy testing. Dr. Ioussifova has built her dry eye and ocular allergy treatment armamentarium over the course of 13 years in practice. She notes that combined, dry eye and ocular allergy can be part of a vicious cycle if the underlying dysregulated immune system isn’t addressed—this is where immunotherapy comes in. Dr. Ioussifova covers her in-office pretesting protocol and the billing and reimbursement behind it.
