Activity Outline
Join us for an informative event where A/Prof Michele Maigan will discuss the latest updates on pigmented lesions in the eye.
The talk will cover two main areas:
1. a (short) refresher on human eye anatomy, normal pigmented eye cells and why study these, and
2. common pigmented lesions in primary eye care - how common, whereabouts, clinical imaging, and updates on approaches for choroidal naevus versus primary choroidal melanoma. Learn about new treatments, diagnostic tools, and research findings in a casual and interactive setting.
The event will take place in person at 20 Genge Street, so mark your calendar and don't miss out! See you there!
