The topics cover a wide range of ocular conditions including binocular vision, anterior segment disease, posterior segment disease, congenital conditions and neuro-ophthalmic disease. There will also be an opportunity to interact with residents from the various programs and learn more about residency training and the opportunities residency training provides. These courses will be COPE approved for eight (8) credit hours of continuing education.
