Meetings

2009 Joint Meeting and Subspecialty Day

Join the Academy in San Francisco for our 2009 Joint Meeting with the Pan-American Association of Ophthalmology (PAAO). The meeting will take place at the Moscone Center from Oct. 24 to 27. It will be preceded by Subspecialty Day from Oct. 23 to 24.

2009 Joint Meeting: "A Must"
“I don’t believe you can stay current in ophthalmology if you don’t go to the Annual Meeting. The meeting is a must, not only because of the CME credits, but because you find out the latest nuances of treating conditions in any subspecialty.”
Robert A. Copeland Jr., MD
Washington, DC

Dedicated to presenting recent advances in the diagnosis and treatment of eye disease, this outstanding four-day event offers symposia, scientific papers, instruction courses, posters, videos and the most extensive exhibition in ophthalmology.
