UKISCRS Annual Meetings
UKISCRS...your national society.
UKISCRS exists to promote education and research in the field of cataract and refractive surgery and to advance and promote the study and practice of ophthalmology and research and the dissemination of the useful results thereof. We aim to innovate, integrate and interact with all our members and wider ophthalmic community.
With this objective at the forefront of the Society aims, the council of UKISCRS (formed of our Trustees, Officers and elected council members) are excited to present the details for our next three meetings.
