The journey of this meeting will take your breath away as we plunge into the abyss of macular holes and even down to sub-retinal surgery to visit the underworld and get a glimpse of the afterlife! We will even reverse the time machine to travel from ancient times back to the future to know what are the latest developments in vitreous surgery!
The highlight of the meeting will be the EGVRS Film Festival competition and the Retina surgeons will dig deep into themselves to show their hidden artistic talents side by side their surgical skills to win the Golden Pharaoh Award!
We are proud to have distinguished international guest speakers from Europe and the Middle East and we are also proud to have the Vitreoretinal society of India (VRSI) as a partner in this meeting.
In addition, to the scientific program, we have allocated enough time for fun, social events, and tours to historic temples and Valley of the kings.
