Women’s systemic and ocular health associated with pregnancy is a focus at EURETINA 2026 in Vienna.

Three EURETINA 2026 e-posters examine OCT/OCTA biomarkers and real-world switching to faricimab or aflibercept 8 mg in nAMD.

Three studies use OCT and OCTA to track AMD treatment response, flag diabetic retinopathy before oedema and confirm ocular toxoplasmosis.

Francesca Cordeiro, PhD, MD, FRCOphth, explains how Detection of Apoptosing Retinal Cells (DARC) imaging predicted the speed and direction of GA growth and could help stratify patients for treatment.

Inherited metabolic diseases affect the retina even before the systemic diagnosis is established.

Sharon Fekrat, MD, FACS, FASRS, discusses how retinal imaging fits into the diagnostic picture for CVI, TBI, and neurodegenerative disease.

An industry symposium on intravitreal 4D-150 and a course on subretinal delivery lead gene therapy content at EURETINA 2026, alongside IRD courses and trial readouts.

Nimesh Patel, MD, urges the FDA to reconsider SYD-101 as pediatric myopia drives earlier retinal damage in US children.

Aldeyra Therapeutics will submit a FDRR to the FDA for reproxalap, an investigational drug or dry eye disease.

For CVI Awareness Day, 3 experts explain why CVI can hide behind a normal eye exam and why early referral matters.

Coats, OD, FAAO, explains how neurotrophic keratitis, demodex, cosmetic habits and mucus fishing complicate dry eye disease.

Cathleen McCabe, MD, presents real-world data from a 57-site US study of the enVista Aspire IOL at ESCRS 2026, reporting over 90% patient satisfaction and 20/32 uncorrected intermediate vision in more than 70% of patients.

Nimesh A. Patel, MD, explains why myopia-related retinal detachments are appearing earlier and how routine exams can catch them.

Alessandro Arrigo, MD, describes an early-stage method that uses blue light autofluorescence imaging to grade cataracts objectively. He explains why a reproducible score could help with surgeon selection, IOL power calculation, and retinal image quantification.

Uday Devgan, MD, FACS, co-chair of EyeCon 2026, highlights what makes cataract surgery challenging, when to add MIGS, and why no patient is routine.

Nimesh A. Patel, MD, discusses compounded low-dose atropine and SYD-101 ahead of an October 30 FDA advisory committee meeting.

Concurrent exudative disease, early intervention, and a rare masquerader complicate the classic picture of geographic atrophy.

Three residents were honored for their leadership, education and research, and patient care contributions in ophthalmology, optometry, and retina.

Patient enrollment is complete in the the ASTRA phase 3 study AURN001 to treat corneal edema associated with corneal endothelial dysfunction.

The meeting will include an Open Public Hearing.

Reconstructing periocular defects in children requires planning for growth, not just repair.

EURETINA President Nicole Eter, MD, picks the sessions busy clinicians should follow at the 26th EURETINA Congress in Vienna, from durability data to AI. She also explains why early referral is still the most effective retina treatment.

At ESCRS 2026, Jascha Wendelstein, MD, noted standard ETDRS visual acuity testing misses functional differences between multifocal IOLs that reading-speed testing reveals.
