Glaucoma Patient Summit

When you face a complex illness that threatens your vision, knowledge is a powerful resource. Our annual Glaucoma Patient Summit is a live forum that shares the latest treatment options and practical insights. This popular event attracts a diverse community, from people born with glaucoma to the newly diagnosed to those who have lived with glaucoma for many years. Patients and caregivers connect and share their experiences, learn more about glaucoma, and hear about emerging pharmaceutical and surgical approaches.
