Join nearly 1,500 comprehensive ophthalmologists, retina specialists, administrators, nurses and allied health professionals for the most unique educational experience in ophthalmology.

This meeting is a great size – large enough to attract top-notch speakers, yet small enough to maintain a level of intimacy. You’ll be offered opportunities to engage faculty and peers in both large and small group settings, appealing to every learning style and comfort level. Each day of the meeting offers a different focus area, so everything you want and need to learn more about is discussed and digested. More than 130 speakers will present the latest research and advances, coupled with their expert interpretation of how this information applies to your own patients and practice. The faculty wear leis to easily identify and approach them after sessions with questions or comments.

Hawaiian Eye and Retina offer it all: Learning, networking, relaxation and adventure
