Genetics

Join us for two days of ophthalmic genetics as part of the CUIMC’s Basic & Clinical Science Course in Ophthalmology. The program is geared for ophthalmology residents, optometrists, genetic counselors, genetic nurses, primary care physicians or anyone else wanting to increase their knowledge of ocular genetics. Experts will be discussing the basics of evaluating genetic diseases, counseling patients and families on their conditions, interesting syndromic cases, and information on therapeutics available.
