(IGR: 10-3) | International Glaucoma Review #

Index of reports and other items IGR 10-3

IGR publishes reports of meetings where glaucoma is the main or an important subject (like Glaucoma Societies Meetings, ARVO, EVER etc.) The idea of these reports is not to provide a list of speakers and their subjects but a critical overview of the news-content. What was exciting, what was important confirmation, what was a real good study, what changes our diagnosis or treatment, and where does glaucoma go. It is the reporters impression of the meeting. What would he/she tell his/her colleagues at home.
