Hi, I'm Dr. Lorenz Kuske.

I'm an ophthalmologist and glaucoma specialist based in Switzerland. I created LearnAboutEyes because I believe that the most important clinical skills in ophthalmology aren't taught in textbooks — they're learned in practice.

My goal is to compress years of clinical experience into accessible, practical courses that help you become a better clinician faster.

The Mission

Every ophthalmologist deserves an excellent education — whether they train at a world-renowned university or at a small hospital in a country with limited resources.

Over the past 12 years, I've had the privilege of learning from some of the best teachers in ophthalmology. I don't want to keep that knowledge to myself. My mission is to take everything I've learned — the practical, clinical, hands-on wisdom that no textbook teaches — and make it accessible to anyone, anywhere.

This isn't about repackaging theory. It's about sharing the real things that make you better in clinic: how to actually read a visual field printout, when to worry about progression, which mistakes to avoid in your first hundred surgeries. The things that usually take years to pick up — condensed and made simple.

"I was at a conference in western Switzerland when two residents — completely independently — came up to me during the lunch break. One was from Geneva, the other from the Caribbean. Both thanked me for my content and told me how much it had helped their training. That moment changed something in me. I realized I was helping to educate doctors I had never met, who don't speak my language, who live on the other side of the world. Similar encounters have happened at conferences ever since — and every single one reminds me why this matters."

Why Free and Paid Content?

Most of what I create is free — and always will be. I want every resident, from day one, to have access to high-quality clinical education regardless of their financial situation. My YouTube channel is where it starts: build your foundation, learn the essentials, and grow as a clinician.

The paid courses exist to make the free content sustainable. Creating in-depth educational material takes significant time — time I could spend operating or seeing patients. Every course enrollment directly funds more free videos, better resources, and new content for the community. In a way, those who can contribute are helping to educate those who can't yet.

That's the cycle I believe in: learn for free early in your career, and give back to the community when you can.
