A Welcome from the Organiser
Dear Colleagues and Friends,
Following the success of our first Alps Refractive Surgery Meeting in Graz, I am delighted to welcome our growing ophthalmology community to Ljubljana for the second edition of ARSM.
Building on more than two decades of tradition, ARSM brings together colleagues from across the Alpine region and beyond to exchange practical knowledge, discuss new approaches and strengthen professional connections in refractive and cataract surgery.
This year, 39 invited speakers from 12 countries will share their clinical experience, insights and solutions to the challenges we face in everyday practice. I hope these two focused days will offer not only valuable education, but also new ideas, conversations and collaborations.
I look forward to welcoming you to Ljubljana in November.
With warm regards,
