The 2018 Rosen Day Symposium took place on May 11th, and covered the topic of Retina. We had guest lecturers Dr. Tien Wong from the Singapore National Eye Centre, Dr Alan Cruess from Dalhousie University, and Dr Gaurav Shah from the Retina Institute.
We had a sell-out crowd, with terrific talks ranging from new concepts in hypertensive retinopathy, overviews of the current gold standards in managing conditions like retinal vein occlusions and macular degeneration, to disruptive innovation in ophthalmology and the latest innovations in diagnostic imaging.
