28th EVER CONGRESS 9-11 October 2025 Florence
2025-10-09 - 2025-10-11
It is my pleasure to welcome you all to the
28th EVER CONGRESS,
which will be held in florence on October 9-11, 2025.

oneEVER is the leading ophthalmological research association in Europe which covers all areas of ophthalmology and the visual sciences. It can be considered as a bridge between basic scientists and clinical eye research of ophthalmology (including retina, glaucoma, cornea and ocular surface, oncology, pediatric ophthalmology, strabismus, neuro-ophthalmology and lens disorders). It is mostly interested in translational research within all areas of ophthalmology and the visual sciences. This is being introduced during congress annual meetings, where the best researchers and ophthalmology clinicians are present. It is essential for EVER that these congress meetings are attended by delegates from all over the world.
We are particularly pleased to welcome you to the city of Florence, the cradle of the Renaissance of Arts and Science, and which still today is a cutting-edge city for science, culture, hospitality, and beauty. With such an important cultural and scientific heritage, with its pleasant Mediterranean climate, Florence is the ideal place to host the 28th EVER Congress.
The venue Palazzo degli Affari, designed by the architect Pierluigi Spadolini, is an elegant and modern congress center overlooking Piazza Adua, located in the city centre, surrounded by hotels and very easy to access. It is close to the high-speed train station and only fifteen minutes away from the city’s airport.
I am convinced that EVER and this excellent venue will initiate or reinforce fruitful collaborations between European researchers, clinicians and industry. I see my mission at EVER to connect these key elements, which will be beneficial for the better understanding of physiology, pathophysiology and treatment.
I am especially interested to offer the conference attendees a broad spectrum of unique state-of-the-art topics of all areas of ophthalmology and visual sciences giving also young investigators the chance to share their research and experience. Indeed, excellent platform or poster presentation from young investigators can get the chance to be honored by an award, which may help to boost their career path.
We are glad to announce that EVER will offer several awards for excellent contributions to the EVER conference taking place in Florence in 2025. This includes travel grants for young people under 35 and from low income countries, poster awards at least 1 per section, rapid fire awards, at least one per section, young investigator awards, at least one per section.
Thus, I invite well known researcher and ophthalmologist, early career investigators and industry to exchange on exiting projects at EVER 2025 in Florence Italy.
Sincerely,
Dr Christina ZEITZ, PhD, Research Director INSERM, Institut de la Vision
EVER President

Following the very successful SOE Congress in Prague in June 2023, it is time to look ahead at the Congress due to take place in Lisbon in June 2025. I am most grateful to each and everyone whose contribution helped make the Prague Congress such an achievement.
The planning for Prague started at the early stages of the recovery from Covid. There were the obvious uncertainties about the future and the appetite of colleagues to return to face to face meetings. There were considerable challenges not least as a result of crowded diaries with other meetings overlapping or taking place around the same time.
We were very pleased to welcome nearly two thousand delegates from 89 countries from across every continent. The feedback on the clinical content was excellent and thanks to the help and support of our Czech Colleagues and the Czech Ophthalmological Society we enjoyed an exceptional social program. We were delighted to be able to offer free registration to 130 Ukrainian colleagues
We have every reason to expect strong support and an even greater success in Lisbon. The scientific program is constantly evolving based on the feedback from previous meetings. We also expect the Congress to offer significant networking opportunities in beautiful Lisbon at a very good time of the year.
We look forward to welcoming you to what promises to be a feast of Ophthalmology for Senior and Young colleagues in all disciplines of Ophthalmology from Europe and across the world.

DOC 2025 Nuremberg 15th to 17th May
2025-05-15 - 2025-05-17
DOC 2024 was a great success. We once again enjoyed record attendance, with more than 6,500 participants at the congress.
Over 540 speakers presented 159 lectures, 102 courses, 27 wetlabs and drylabs, 10 symposia, exceptional honor lectures and keynote lectures. A highlight was the video live surgery from the Singapore National Eye Centre with two outstanding eye surgeons (Chee Soon Phaik and Doric Wong).
The program for management and administrative staff was very varied and extremely popular.
The OAP program for ophthalmological assistants (MFAs and operating theatre nurses) was extremely multifaceted and well attended. A very comprehensive and well-organized industry exhibition regarding everything that is important in the fields of ophthalmology and ophthalmic surgery today was an important part of this meeting.
I hope that you went home with a wealth of valuable impressions and insights, and I would like to take this opportunity to thank the many members of staff who worked so hard to organize and realize this congress. This includes my DOC team, the organizing committee and the DOC program committee. I would also like to express my special thanks to MCN for their excellent and dedicated organization.
I am looking forward to DOC 2025 in Nuremberg from 15th to 17th May 2025.
I hope to see you there! All the best and good health.
