The XIII Congress of the European Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgeons (ESCRS), one of the biggest and most important meetings in ophthalmology and vision research, took place in Barcelona from the 5th to the 9th of September of 2015.
With an attendance of more than 8000 eye care professionals and researchers, and the presentation of a massive number of studies, the meeting was a great opportunity to communicate the state-of-the-art of the vision research.
The AGEYE consortium was present at the ESCRS 2015 with a great contribution that included more than 15 communications between talks and posters, which show the advances of the project, and more than 30 collaborations in external studies.
Some of the AGEYE consortium partners present at the meeting were: The University of Valencia, The Rotterdam Ophthalmic Institute, The University of Manchester, The University of Murcia, Wroclaw University of Technology, Optegra, Alcon and Staar Surgical.
Some of the studies presented were:
