Queen''s University Belfast Pan Ireland Ophthalmology Day
9 October 2025 - 10 October 2025
Assembly Buildings, 2-10 Fisherwick Place, Belfast
Queen’s University Belfast is delighted to announce two special events happening in October 2025 to celebrate World Sight Day.
World Sight Day (9th October 2025) and Pan-Ireland Ophthalmology Day (10th October) run annually and focus attention on the global issue of avoidable blindness and visual impairment.
Both days will concentrate on blinding eye diseases and will feature presentations from a host of guest lecturers who are all experts in their field both in clinical and basic science.
The conferences will bring together practitioners and researchers from ophthalmology, optometry, and imaging. The aim is to provide a platform to promote the advancement, knowledge and treatment of aspects of eye disease and to identify key opportunities, challenges and ways of working collaboratively. The speakers include subject specialists from eye health, vision science, image processing and eye screening.
At this year’s POD we are delighted to feature a special half day symposium (Retina Physiology) sponsored by The Physiological Society.
