Discount Information
CORPORATE DISCOUNTS
Earned Rates:
Earned rates are given to advertisers based on advertising frequency within a 12-month period. The
earned rate is determined by the number of insertions. A spread counts as two insertions. Full pages and
fractional pages count as single insertions. Demographic ads will count toward a company’s final earned
frequency on a pro-rated basis (e.g., a 4-page unit going to 50% of circulation = 2X). Insertions from a
parent company and its subsidiaries are combined to determine earned rate. Advertisers are short-rated
or rebated based on year end final level earned. The minimum number of insertions at each level must be
met within the 2015 calendar or fiscal year.
Corporate Discount Program:
Effective with January 1, 2015 insertion orders, the Corporate Discount program is based on an advertiser’s
2014 net advertising, including digital spending, plus non-CME promotional project expenditures in all of the
UBM Medica media. Please contact your account manager for more information and your discount rate.

Global Advertising Program:
In lieu of the previously mentioned discounts, the advertiser can opt to utilize the Ophthalmology Times
Global Advertising Program. This program is based on the planned increase in advertising dollars over the
2014 schedule in Ophthalmology Times. To compute: Once the 2015 ad spend exceeds 20% of that
base, investment savings begin (see chart below).

save an additional 5% off the combined space costs for both publications. (Ads must be same product, color,
and size.)

v) This discount program may not be combined with any other Ophthalmology Times Group incentive
program.

Advertiser Conversion Discount:
New products advertising in Ophthalmology Times that commit to a minimum of six issues during the
year earn a 10% discount on every 2015 insertion. This program applies to new, converting advertisers that
appeared in competitive ophthalmic journals in 2014 but not in Ophthalmology Times.
Product Incentive Program Criteria:
i) The minimum number of insertions at each level must be met within a calendar or fiscal year.
ii) For simplicity, and maximum savings, the Product Incentive Program percent savings will be taken off
the product’s gross insertion expenditure. The PIP discount should be added to your corporation’s Corporate
Discount Program earned discount, and the resulting total percentage is taken off of the gross insertion cost.
iii) You can project what Product Incentive Program level you will achieve for the year and begin to realize savings immediately. At your earliest convenience, please notify your Ophthalmology Times account
manager of your product’s planned Product Incentive Program participation level. If the product does not meet
the projected level, or exceeds its projected level, that product will be short rated or rebated accordingly. If the
product is pulled off the market due to an FDA ruling, the accrued savings will stand, and the company will not
be penalized for loss of product continuity.
iv) All of a product’s indications work together to attain a product’s insertion level.

Display Advertising Requirements
SCREEN REQUIREMENTS:
PRINT PRODUCTION MATERIALS:
Density of Tone: 4C ads not exceed 300%; 2C, 190%; B&W, 95%.
1 CMYK is the only accepted mode for 4C ads. Do not use RGB.
2 Do not use spot color unless you are
paying for a PMS (Pantone) color.
3 Colors viewed on your monitor may not
be representative of final output.
Always check monitor color values against CMYK color swatches
and the final KODAK APPROVAL color proof or equivalent.
Laser color proofs are for identification only. Should proofs
not meet specifications, we will print to published SWOP
ink densities. [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], and [email protected].
Reproduction Requirements:
Follow “Specifications for Web Offset Publication” (SWOP) Tenth
Edition for printing in the new millennium. Ophthalmology Times is
printed Web offset. Our preferred ad page material is an electronic
digital file furnished as a PDF/X1a. Any omissions, or color deviation
from a submitted proof, other than a quality KODAK APPROVAL or
equivalent, will not warrant adjustment for space or color charge.
Disposition of Material and Inserts:
Inserts and electronic ad files are held for one year
from date of last insertion and then destroyed.
Supplied disks are not returned or retained.
Digital Ad Requirements:
1. Digital data is required for all ad submissions. Preferred format is
PDF/X-1a. Note that a standard PDF is not a preferred format, files
should be a PDF/X-1a which is a PDF subset specific to printing.
Publisher shall have no obligation or liability to Advertiser of any
kind (including, without limitation, the obligation to offer Advertiser
makegoods or any other form of compensation) if an ad is supplied
to Publisher by Advertiser in any format other than our preferred
www.OphthalmologyTimes.com
formats. Non-preferred or non-acceptable formats will be charged
a $150 processing fee. All files should be built to exact ad space
dimensions purchased. For detailed instructions on preparing
PDF/X-1a files and submitting ad files to the correct size, go to
www.AdsAtAdvanstar.com or contact the production manager.
2. Publisher will not supply a faxed or soft proof for Advertiser-supplied
files. Advertiser is solely responsible for preflighting and proofing all
advertisements prior to submission to Publisher. If Publisher detects
an error before going to press, Publisher will make a reasonable
effort to contact Advertiser to give Advertiser an opportunity
to correct and resubmit Advertiser’s file before publication.
3. Accepted Method of Delivery: The preferred method
of delivering ad files to UBM Medica is via a web based
ad uploader, www.AdsAtAdvanstar.com. Files can
also be submitted on CD-R or DVD-R disc format.
4. Ad Proofs: To insure that Advertiser’s ad is reproduced correctly,
a SWOP-certified color proof that has been made from the
same file that Advertiser supplies to Publisher must be provided.
Publisher cannot provide Advertiser any assurances regarding the
accuracy of reproduction of any ad submitted without a SWOP
proof. Publisher shall have no obligation or liability to Advertiser
of any kind (including, without limitation, the obligation to offer
Advertiser makegoods or any other form of compensation) for any
ad supplied to Publisher by Advertiser without a SWOP proof.
Provider Information Required:

MODERN ADJUSTABLE SUTURE
techniques are much improved and applicable
to children and adults, as practically all strabismus procedures can be adjusted. However,
there are both advantages and disadvantages
in choosing the adjustable technique over standard strabismus surgery, according to David
L. Guyton, MD.
“The concept of fine-tuning the surgery makes
sense in preoperative discussions (because)
there is less anxiety for the surgeon, and in
our hands we really do get
better results,” said Dr. Guyton, Zanvyl Krieger Professor
of Pediatric Ophthalmology
at Zanvyl Krieger Children’s
Eye Center, Wilmer Eye Institute, Johns Hopkins UniDr. Guyton
versity School of Medicine,
Baltimore.
“We don’t always know where to leave the
muscle, but we definitely know where we don’t
want it to be, such as causing a large overcorrection or undercorrection," Dr. Guyton said.
“That’s where adjustable sutures really come
to the rescue.”
WEIGHING THE BENEFITS
Using adjustable sutures may cost more initially because of more intraoperative and postoperative time involved—plus an additional
anesthesia cost in young children—but this
may be offset by less morbidity and fewer reoperations, Dr. Guyton said.
To date, however, no cost-benefit studies
have been performed nor randomized clinical
trials performed to demonstrate that adjust-

(FIGURE 1) According to Dr. Guyton and colleagues’ published results of their adjustable suture technique
in children in the Journal of AAPOS, the success rate increased from 62% with nonadjustable sutures to
78% with the adjustable technique in esotropia patients, and from 69% to 80% in exotropia.

able suture strabismus surgery is better than
the fixed-suture technique.
Use of the adjustable technique is largely a
matter of the ophthalmologist’s personal preference, he added.
The roadblocks that prevent some strabismus
surgeons from using the technique include a
steep learning curve. Dr. Guyton noted that
surgeons will need training and experience to
achieve high success rates and that success is
highly technique-dependent.
Also, more time is required for the adjustable suture technique—about 3 to 5 minutes
per muscle intraoperatively and 15 to 20 minutes for adjustment.
Anesthesiologists tend to be initially resistant to this technique, questioning the safety
of giving brief IV propofol anesthesia in the
recovery room, but with experience this resistance evaporates quickly, Dr. Guyton said.
The techniques for adjustable sutures in
children evolved from those used in adults,
he noted. Although such a technique was first
described over a century ago, it was rarely
used until resurrected and improved by Arthur Jampolsky, MD, in the 1970s.
Adjustable sutures originally were used for
less predictable operations, but Dr. Guyton said
he uses them for practically any muscle procedure, except when weakening the inferior
oblique muscle. Procedures suited to the adjustable suture technique include recessions,
resections, tucks, Harada-Ito procedures, transpositions, and lower lid suspensions.
NEW TECHNIQUES
Dr. Guyton and colleagues published results of
their adjustable suture technique in children in
2008 in the Journal of AAPOS, measuring success within 8 prism D of straight. The success
rate increased from 62% with nonadjustable
sutures to 78% with the adjustable technique
in esotropia patients, and from 69% to 80%

HOW IT’S DONE
In LPK, as in PALK, an excimer laser (Amaris 1050RS,
Schwind eye-tech-solutions) is used to perform a
pachymetry-guided, 8-mm ablation of the recipient
eye, leaving 100 μm of posterior stroma, Dr. Carriazo explained.
Then, in LPK, the laser is used to create multiple
microperforations around the periphery of the stromal bed. Due to the fast speed of the laser (1,050
Hz), the laser treatment of the recipient eye takes
just about 90 seconds.
After placing air in the anterior chamber, an 8-mm
