ASCRS / ESCRS Courses.
ASCRS 2024
On Sunday April 7th, the IOL Power organized its course at the annual meeting of the ASCRS in Boston. The title was “IOL Power Club Course: Optimized IOL Power Selection”. Dr. Hoffer introduced the course and gave an overview of currently available IOL formulas for unoperated eyes. Dr. Shammas presented un update on optical biometers and Dr. Olsen provided the best evidence for calculation in short and long eyes. Dr. Ribeiro discussed the issue of IOL power calculation in post-LASIK eyes and Dr. Savini in toric eyes; finally Dr. Aramberri presented some unusual cases. As usual, several ophthalmologists attended the course.
The next course of the IPC will be in Barcelona at ESCRS: we are looking forward to seeing you there!
