It is an exciting and hopeful time for people with keratoconus. Corneal collagen cross-linking has the potential of being the most significant breakthrough for treating and halting the progression of the disease. Together with the identification of keratoconus genes and the development of new screening technologies, there is much to inform you in this free information forum brought to you by the Centre for Eye Research Australia (CERA).
There will be time for questions with the speakers about their presentations, or broader keratoconus research.
Speakers:
- Associate Professor Paul Baird, Principal Investigator Ocular Genetics, CERA
- Dr Elsie Chan, Honorary Research Fellow, University of Melbourne
- Dr Srujana Sahebjada, Research Optometrist, CERA
Venue: Royal Victorian Eye and Ear Hospital Lucy Jones Hall 426 Albert Street (corner of Morrison Place) East Melbourne
