EnVision Summit 2026: Ultimate gathering place for ophthalmic education

EnVision Summit is billed as the “ultimate gathering place for ophthalmic and optometric professionals.”

The Summit has it all, according to the organizers: a safe and beautiful setting that fosters continued learning, peer support, industry networking, and family fun.

The Hyatt Regency Grand Reserve, 200 Coco Beach Blvd., RÍo Grande, Puerto Rico, is a family-friendly venue for this annual meeting scheduled for Friday, February 13 to Monday, February 16.

The relaxed setting gives attendees numerous opportunities to reconnect both with industry connections and eye care professionals in the furtherance of their careers.

The concept of the meeting’s set-up was crafted by physicians for physicians with the stated goal of supporting and empowering leaders in an innovative format for continuing education and designed with their needs in mind.

Last year, the optometry side of ophthalmic care was incorporated to rave reviews, with the same expected this year. In addition to ophthalmologists and optometrists, other eye care professionals are encouraged to attend.
