MEETING DATES – September 11-13, 2025
Dear colleagues and friends,
It is our great pleasure to invite you to the 43rd Annual Meeting of the European Society of Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, hosted for the 1st time, in Czech Republic and the magical city of Prague, from September 11-13, 2025.
As has become the norm, the conference will start with a one-day pre-meeting course, a comprehensive review of various topics by international experts and aimed at the young ophthalmologist and anyone who wishes to stay up to date in our specialty. It is followed by the main event of 2 days, which consists of a blend of rapid-fire presentations, free papers and invited keynote lectures on various topics of current interest. In addition to the usual blocks on eyelid, lacrimal and orbital disorders and surgery, we will also have special sections on AI in oculoplastics, endoscopic orbital approaches and facial war trauma. We strive to craft our program to be innovative, diverse and rich and to offer something inspiring for everyone. International presence from all over the world will make it an ideal platform to meet new colleagues, exchange ideas and make new friends from afar.
Situated in the heart of Europe, Prague has been at the crossroads of history since its foundation around the 9th century and has witnessed the unfolding of many major historical, political, cultural and religious movements passing through Europe over the years. Despite many turbulent times, the historical centre has escaped any major destruction and proudly displays its tourist core, as one of the best-preserved old cities of Europe. Prague is known as a walking city, with nearly all the major attractions within about a 1 km radius of the Old Town Square. We specifically chose for our meeting location, the Municipal House, a historical Art Nouveau concert hall, in the same central location to showcase the boutique, cozy feel of old Prague. In addition, this area is teeming with numerous hotels, fine restaurants as well as theaters, galleries and cultural events, including a vibrant nightlife. Its colorful history, along with beautiful architecture and modern amenities, make Prague today one of the top destinations in this part of the world.
We endeavour to create for you an unforgettable, multifaceted academic experience, set in a rich social, gastronomic and historical background, with a goal for ESOPRS 2025 to be fondly remembered for years to come.
COME AND FEEL THE MAGIC…
