4th Annual Vit-Buckle Society Meeting

This meeting is

dedicated to the memory of

Cesare Forlini, MD

The VBS Executive Board dedicates this year's annual

meeting to Cesare Forlini, remembering the values and virtues

he embodied: perpetual upbeat disposition, hard work,

perfectionism, professionalism and collegiality.

If you are a recurrent VBS attendee, welcome back! If you are a first timer,

you are in for a very unique experience. We are combining live surgery with

a very dynamic, energetic program full of discussions, interruptions and

fact checking moments. It is a meeting where the podium talk is kept real!

We hope to highlight up and coming young surgeons while we continue to learn from the

moderating of well known retina specialists. It is interactive and fun!

Be ready to express your thoughts, ask questions, tell us about your surgical experiences

or new ideas of techniques/instruments. Do not be shy. We want to hear you. We need this

meeting to be interactive. Everyone is a participant. Everyone is a speaker. Industry will also

be there for you to interact with them. You will never attend a meeting that better fosters

constant interaction and engagement.

This is all made possible by the support of our great corporate

partners who listen to our needs and make our field much better.

Live and let vit!!!
