Learning Objectives

Participants in COIS 2024 will have the opportunity to:

  • Exchange experiences and ideas across two subspecialties (retina and glaucoma) that rely heavily on imaging for diagnosis and treatment plans, with the overall goal of applying new developments across both specialties

  • Review new nomenclature for interpretation of Swept Source, OCT, OCT angiography, and wide field imaging

  • Apply practical clinical decision-making based on image findings

  • Review advanced new imaging technologies and their potential advantages and clinical use, including artificial intelligence, and image analysis

  • Gain updated knowledge regarding key studies and evidence-based management of retinal diseases and glaucoma as presented and discussed by medical experts

Target Audience

This program has been designed to meet the educational needs of retina specialists, glaucoma specialists, and fellows. This will ensure a high-level discourse on anatomy, technology, and strategic applications in practice.
