INTERNATIONAL GLAUCOMA SYMPOSIUM

The first International Glaucoma Symposium will be held by Heidelberg Engineering in conjunction with Mainz University on 1st February, 2025, bringing together specialists from around the world.

The event calls for AI to be fully implemented as an increasing number of glaucoma and diabetic patients are diagnosed, often when the condition is advanced. The use of AI is starting to aid detection, and speed of processing patients, with a limited number of clinicians in many countries.

The University Eye Clinic at Mainz – easily reached from Frankfurt airport – is open to all ophthalmologists and those involved in the application of AI to this specialty.

Heidelberg Engineering Clinical Director Glaucoma, Dr Stephan Schulz, is encouraging the profession to attend and help to form the care pathways for the next decade.

“We will be hearing from world specialists about their experiences and aspirations for the development of AI models for patient identification and disease progression predictions. The open forum session during the afternoon is designed to encourage an inspiring and educational exchange of ideas and experiences.”

Computer-aided diagnosis has become increasingly widespread in medicine and the analysis of complex data is already making headway for effective glaucoma detection and diagnosis.
