As we all know, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused an unprecedented public health challenge, and we were forced to postpone our Annual Meeting a full year. Hopefully we will physically meet again in Naples in September 2021.
In the meantime, to serve our members and those interested in our teaching activities, we held several webinars on various topics relating to challenging cases in Oculoplastics, Lacrimal and Orbital Surgery: a live ESOPRS Academy. We will continue in 2021 if this initiative will be successful, hopefully with an input from all interested Members.
Francesco Quaranta Leoni – President
Dion Paridaens – Secretary
David Verity – Treasurer
We congratulate our new ESOPRS members, who were accepted at the 2019 ESOPRS Annual Meeting in Hamburg. There are seventeen new Full Members, one International Member, seven Associate Members and six Candidate Members, giving a total of 31 new members.

Amongst his many contributions, Tony will be remembered for his colour atlas of... read more
