ESCRS Winter Meeting Poster Prize winners adress important questions in cataract and refractive surgery


Every year at its Annual winter meeting the ESCRS awards a prize of €1000 to the best Cataract and Refractive Posters Presentations of the Congress.

This year’s winner of the refractive poster prize went to Suphi Taneri MD, Münster, Germany. His presentation sought to elucidate the influence of the epithelial flap after EPI-LASIK and LASEK for the correction of low to moderate ametropia on visual recovery, epithelial closure, pain, and haze formation.

The prize for the best cataract poster went to Liga Radecka MD, Pauls Stradins Clinical University Hospital, Riga, Latvia. Her presentation described a study which indicated that patients with wet AMD who have successfully undergone treatment with Bevacizumab (Avastin, Genentech) cataract surgery will not cause a reactivation of their condition.

The Poster Prize winnners will be featured in a special report on the 14th ESCRS Winter Meeting in Budapest in April EuroTimes.
