Ophthalmology Events

The 22nd annual Midwest Ocular Angiography Conference (MOAC) will be held at the Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge, in Jasper, Alberta, Canada, August 4-7, 2010. We held our 15th annual meeting at the Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge in 2003, and the meeting was one of the most popular meetings that we have ever had. To reach Jasper, one can fly either into Calgary or Edmonton, Canada, and then drive approximately four to five hours. The route from Calgary to Banff to Lake Louise, and then north on the Icefields Parkway is incredibly scenic, and is the recommended route.

This event will offer the most comprehensive and stimulating array of vitreoretinal information and technology ever assembled. Our exciting program will feature scientific papers with Q&A sessions, scientific posters with a wine and cheese reception, panel discussions on controversial issues and techniques, a retina case conference, award lectures, and a film festival. Plus, technical exhibits from the world's top vitreoretinal companies will be on display, giving participants access to the latest products, innovations and expertise.
