What's New in Diabetic Retinopathy and Venous Occlusive Disease - November 20, 2009
Approximately 4.0 million Americans age 40 and older have diabetic retinopathy, including almost 1 million who have vision-threatening disease, including macular edema. Diabetic retinopathy and related diseases such as retinal vein occlusions remain leading and growing causes of blindness in adults who make up the work force. Despite this, diabetic retinopathy and venous occlusive disease are often under-diagnosed and under-treated. This annual course highlights new information being reported by the Diabetic Retinopathy Clinical Research Network and others that impacts current standard care and management strategies.

Annual Current Concepts in Ophthalmology - December 3-5, 2009
This course will focus on clinical use and medical issues important to the evolving practice of ophthalmology, with a specific concentration on the most advanced medical and surgical treatment options within glaucoma, retina, anterior segment, and refractive surgery. Expert faculty will present the latest developments in the management of ocular conditions through a combination of didactic and highly interactive discussion sessions. Ample time will be reserved to pursue case studies with registrants.

Macula 2010 - January 23, 2010
Presentations will be chosen to emphasize new information on the use of VEGF inhibitors, corticosteroids, and other pharmacologic agents in the management of retinal diseases. In addition, cases will be chosen which highlight new information being reported by the Diabetic Retinopathy Clinical Research Network and other randomized clinical trials.

 

Regularly Scheduled Conferences
