Continuing Medical Education (CME)

Educational Objectives & Purpose

The 26th Annual ASRS Meeting will provide a forum for the rapid dissemination of the most recent scientific research results to practicing vitreoretinal specialists. Its purpose is to allow the presentation of new and ongoing research data, including any data or skill sets applicable that enable the physician to effectively care for patients from diverse cultures or communities, to thereby expand the ability of the vitreoretinal specialist to diagnose and treat vitreous and retinal diseases using the most advanced concepts and techniques available.

Upon completion of the scientific sessions, the participant shall be able to describe the findings, diagnosis and treatment of various vitreoretinal disorders such as macular degeneration, choroidal neovascularization, diabetic retinopathy, venous occlusive disease, macular holes, epiretinal membranes, ocular inflammatory disease, tumors, proliferative vitreoretinopathy, and retinal detachment.
