Join us for "For Your Eyes Only," happening at the elegant Miss Moneypenny. We promise to enhance your clinical expertise with three pivotal topics in ophthalmology.

Firstly, delve into the complexities of diagnosing and managing watery eyes—a common yet often challenging symptom with various underlying causes. Dr Andrea Zarkovic will share her strategies and practical insights to refine your approach and improve patient outcomes.

Next, explore the intricacies of flashes and floaters—symptoms that can indicate serious retinal conditions. Gain a deeper understanding of how to triage them based on their origins 

Finally,  we look into pre-operative considerations of cataract surgery. You'll gain valuable knowledge to navigate the evolving landscape of cataract care with confidence.
