Welcome
Course Description
In this year’s one-day annual 2017 Toronto Eye Review course, we will review highly pertinent pearls for common clinical scenarios encountered in our everyday practices. This course is designed as a practical review, highlighting the most important clinical pearls and management options for both the comprehensive and sub-specialist ophthalmologist. We will present the course material in a novel way, by delivering TED-style talks, with the hope that the material will be retained more deeply and recalled more easily when managing common everyday ophthalmological problems. We have an experienced line-up of speakers, all of whom will be coached to deliver high-level and engaging talks to meet the objectives of this course.
Target Audience
Ophthalmologist, residents and fellows.
