Teilnehmerkreis: Tierärzt:innen, vet.-med. Studierende

Zeitraum: 28.02.2026 09:00 - 01.03.2026 - 17:00

Referenten:

MVDr. Renata Stavinohova PhD, PGCertSAOphthal, DipECVO, MRCVS

Zusatzinformationen:

This course presents an exceptional opportunity for veterinary surgeons with a keen interest in Ophthalmology (students or general practitioners with interest in eyes, advanced practitioners, or ophthalmology/surgical residents) to enhance their surgical expertise across a comprehensive spectrum of techniques. This encompasses microsurgical principles, suturing techniques, conjunctival and eyelid surgeries, as well as blepharoplasties.

As an added benefit, Renata will prepare a series of compelling case studies, available during breaks, allowing participants the opportunity to delve into case-based approaches and management discussions when they are not engaged in practical sessions.

To ensure an intimate and focused learning environment, the course is limited to a maximum of 15 attendees. Ideally, participants are encouraged to bring their microsurgical loupes and instruments for adnexal surgeries, allowing them to work in a setting with which they are most comfortable. However, for those who may not have access to these tools, or prefer not to bring them, microsurgical loupes and instruments will be readily available. Additionally, all necessary consumables and protective clothing will be provided for the duration of the course.
