The Iowa Eye Association Annual Meeting was held June 18-19, 2004. Topics of the educational program included key considerations for the evaluation of glaucoma, management of patients with AMD and surgical treatment of cataract. It also covered important considerations regarding clinical research.
Robert N. Weinreb, M.D., Professor of Ophthalmology, University of California San Diego, Shiley Eye Center and Director, Hamilton Glaucoma Center, delivered the inaugural Mansour F. Armaly Lecture. The Mansour F. Armaly Lecture was established this year as a tribute to Dr. Armaly who was a distinguished member of the University of Iowa Department of Ophthalmology faculty from 1958-1970. Dr. Armaly was instrumental in defining the natural history of glaucoma, in developing techniques of early detection and monitoring function loss in the eye, and in demonstrating the genetic character of glaucoma. |
