Barcelona es una ciudad creativa, abierta y vibrante, con una intensa vida cultural, política, empresarial y comercial. Es una gran metrópoli donde se pueden oír hablar todas las lenguas imaginables y, al mismo tiempo, es también una ciudad que invita a conocer su cultura y las tradiciones catalanas.

Overview

#Retina19

The Trends in Retina conference not only featured the latest trends within the subject area, but also treated us to some very special moments that will remain "etched in our retinas" and which we want to share with you!

3D surgical cases

What better way to kick off the meeting than with 3D surgical videos – everything is ready for the first session!

More than 300 ophthalmologists filled the auditorium to follow the videos attentively thanks to an exceptional panel made up of some of the best retina surgeons in the world.

Dr GarcĂ­a-ArumĂ­, who is listening carefully to the explanations given by Dr A. Berrocal in the photo, was responsible for coordinating and moderating the session.

Another of the “highlights” was the discussion among panellists about the techniques they usually apply and other surgical tricks.

The Speakers 

Dr B. CorcĂłstegui moderated the session on vitreoretinal surgery.

Doctors C. Awh and S. Rizzo, hidden among the audience, listen to their colleagues’ presentations.

The threesome made up of doctors D. Sim, Loewenstein and Burés discusses telemedicine and artificial intelligence.

Genetics doctors C. MartĂ­nez and V. Abad follow some moments during the conference with amusement.

Dr A. Wert explained the keys to diplopia after a vitrectomy.

Dr Y. Le Mer introduced the latest advances in artificial vision.

Oops ... How would you manage? Dr Carlos Mateo was bursting with energy during this session on surgical complications.

New developments in medical retina were also dealt with during the conference, as presented by Dr R. Navarro.

The MUST-HAVES

Freshly made popcorn to attend the last video session – yummy!

Some speakers shared relaxing moments while eating popcorn.

The conference bag, featuring a typical tile from Barcelona, was very well received by the attendees.
