Another year of compelling cases, candid discussion, and engaging learning awaits.
Kiawah Eye & Retina was excited to debut its first dedicated retina track at the 2026 meeting! Creating a collaborative experience focused on practical education, meaningful discussion and valuable engagement between faculty, attendees and industry partners.
The success of the 2026 program sets the stage for an even stronger 2027 experience featuring:
- A shared learning environment that brings retina specialists and comprehensive ophthalmologists together through practical education and discussion
- The addition of 25+ Nationally recognized retina-focused faculty delivering clinical pearls, updates on emerging therapies and real-world perspectives
- A relaxed yet engaging setting on Kiawah Island that supports both focused education and meaningful networking.
- A thoughtfully designed meeting environment optimized for educational sessions, collaboration and exhibit hall engagement (Including our new to Kiawah – Retina Row!)
- Interactive, case-based discussions designed to encourage audience participation and practical takeaways
- Opportunities for valuable connection between faculty, attendees and industry partners during a welcome reception, dedicated exhibit hall hours, and an industry focused innovation summit.
We’re excited to see what 2027 will bring for our attendees, faculty, industry partners and the comprehensive and retina ophthalmology community. We deeply value the role our industry partners play in advancing patient care and appreciate your continued support, participation and partnership.
