Dear Colleagues,

We are delighted to announce the 11th edition of the Congress of the Romanian Society of Strabology and Pediatric Ophthalmology (SRSOP), with the theme: Innovation and Technologies in Strabology and Pediatric Ophthalmology, which will take place from April 3rd to 5th, 2025, in Brașov, at the Qosmo Hotel.

As part of the scientific program, the first Pediatric Neuro-Ophthalmology course in Romania will be held! This course is an absolute premiere and a unique opportunity to explore the latest research and techniques in this field.

We will have the honor of hosting distinguished guests from both Romania and abroad, who will address highly relevant topics in the field of strabology and pediatric ophthalmology.

We hope that this edition will also offer you a valuable experience, and that those who have not yet attended our congresses will join us with enthusiasm!
