Dr. Luke’s Flight Plan: A Refractive Surgeon’s Journey Toward Simpler, Safer Care with OSRX
Dr. Luke’s Flight Plan
A Refractive Surgeon’s Journey Toward Simpler, Safer Care with OSRX
For Dr. Luke Rebenitsch, surgery is more than a skill—it’s a system. A refractive surgeon and private pilot based in Oklahoma City, Dr. Luke has built his career on precision and process. He believes safety doesn’t happen by chance—it happens by checklist.
It’s a mindset he credits to a book that deeply influenced him: The Checklist Manifesto by Atul Gawande.
“No matter how intelligent a person is, we all make mistakes. Systems and checklists help us prevent them. Surgery didn’t become safe until we embraced that.”
Surgical Systems, Surgical Mindset
Dr. Luke sees his approach to flying and surgery as nearly identical.
“In aviation, I use checklists before, during, and after every flight. We’ve adopted the same process in surgery—and OSRX is a key part of that checklist.”
That belief—rigorous, thoughtful, exacting—is the same philosophy that led Dr. Luke to OSRX.
A Need for Simplicity in a Complex Field
At ClearSight LASIK & Lens, Dr. Luke and his team offer seven major types of refractive procedures. That diversity requires flexibility—and consistency—in post-op care.
“LASIK isn’t going anywhere, but now we’re talking more about lens-based solutions and long-term care. That changes the way we approach everything, including medications.”
Before OSRX, the medication workflow was anything but streamlined. Between managing patient confusion and dealing with insurance issues, his team was stretched thin.
“We were spending time chasing approvals and answering endless questions. It took nearly a full-time staff member just to manage drop logistics.”
Switching to compounded medications through OSRX changed that.
“With OSRX, I know exactly what we’re giving our patients. The drops are reliable, and we don’t have to worry about multiple medication bottles or availability. That’s huge.”
Note: OSRX compounded medications have not been evaluated by the FDA for safety or efficacy and are prescribed based on individual patient needs.
The OSRX Difference
For Dr. Luke, it’s not just the medications—it’s the company behind them.
“OSRX is one of the most transparent companies I’ve ever worked with. If I have a concern, they’ll walk me through the process. They stand behind the meds they compound.”
With a 503B designation, OSRX allows practices to order medications in bulk— eliminating delays and helping offices like ClearSight operate more like traditional surgery centers.
“We never have to delay care because we’re out of meds. OSRX lets us run efficiently without cutting corners.”
Designed to Scale. Built for Safety.
The ability to offer compounded medications has given Dr. Luke’s team the flexibility to offer tailored care for every procedure—without adding confusion for patients.
“If it’s confusing for us, it’s definitely confusing for patients. Combining medications into a single regimen makes life easier.”
That clarity carries into his office-based surgery center, where OSRX’s intracameral injection is a key part of his checklist.
“Our intracameral protocol is one of the ways we bring precision and consistency to every case.”
