Welcome to the 16th Annual Joint Conference hosted by the Illinois Society of Eye Physicians & Surgeons and the Chicago Ophthalmological Society. The theme for this year -- the 2020 annual meeting -- is "Perfect Vision."

Ophthalmic technicians (JCAHPO credit) focused on clinical courses for technical personnel in an ophthalmic office
Residents breakout luncheon and roundtable discussion -- (additional registration is not required)
