COURSE OUTLINE<br />
Optical coherence tomographic angiography (OCTA) is a rapidly evolving imaging<br />
modality that is poised to become an important clinical tool for the diagnosis and<br />
management of both anterior and posterior eye diseases. In this one day course,<br />
participants will learn the basis behind OCTA, its interpretation and its application<br />
to major eye diseases such as neovascular age related macular degeneration,<br />
polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy, diabetic retinopathy, retinal vein occlusion,<br />
glaucoma, optic nerve and corneal diseases.<br />
Our panel of speakers will share their experience and tips on how best to integrate<br />
OCTA into your daily clinical practice.<br />

This wetlab course aims to teach general ophthalmologists and ophthalmology<br />
trainees the essentials of ophthalmic microsurgery. This includes the basic skills<br />
necessary to deal with on-call emergencies and those needed to embark on<br />
more specialised elective operations.<br />
COURSE OUTLINE<br />
The course will encompass the essential techniques in suturing and tissue<br />
handling, followed by a step-by-step approach to extracapsular cataract extraction,<br />
trabeculectomy and basic oculoplastic procedures. The basic course concentrates<br />
on cementing good surgical practice and the advanced course applies this<br />
knowledge to the more common and most useful microsurgical operations.<br />
During this 2-day comprehensive course, participants will attend didactic lectures<br />
with ample wetlab opportunities to perform microsurgery on animal eyes. The use<br />
of high quality surgical instruments and microscopes coupled with attentive expert<br />
supervision ensures that each delegate will have a rewarding learning experience.<br />
