Nagpur is set to host the 11th Annual Conference of the Strabismus and Pediatric Ophthalmology Society of India (SPOSI) on December 7-8, 2024, at Hotel Centre Point, Ramdaspeth. This prestigious event will bring together experts in pediatric ophthalmology and strabismus from around the world.

SPOSI, a leading organization in pediatric eye care, organizes this annual conference to advance knowledge, research, and treatment in the field. The event serves as a platform for professionals to exchange insights, learn about the latest advancements, and improve patient care.

The two-day conference will focus on diagnosing and managing pediatric eye conditions like strabismus (eye misalignment), lazy eye (amblyopia), and pediatric cataracts. Left untreated, these conditions can lead to lifelong vision challenges. The event aims to equip ophthalmologists with the tools to prevent and treat such issues, fostering better eye health for children.

The conference is being led by an experienced organizing committee, including Dr. Shubhangi Bhave (President, SPOSI); Dr. Pandey (Secretary, SPOSI); Dr. Varsha Pande (Organizing Chair); Dr. Rinkle Phusate (Organizing Secretary); Dr. Neelu Mundhada (Treasurer). They are supported by Dr. Krishna Bhojwani, President of the Ophthalmic Society of Nagpur (OSN), and his team, along with active members of the Nagpur Squint Club.

The conference will feature lectures and sessions by internationally acclaimed experts, including Dr. Lee Andrew G (USA); Dr. Saurabh Jain (UK); Dr. Amila (Sri Lanka); Dr. Sameera Irfan (Pakistan); Dr. Srijana Adhikari (Nepal); Dr. Preeti Chablani (USA)

A pre-conference workshop will be held at AIIMS Nagpur, offering hands-on training in squint surgery, pediatric cataract procedures, and the management of lazy eyes. The workshop, led by Dr. Puja Bang, Dr. Kanishk Singh, and Dr. Trupti Lambat, will provide practical skills to ophthalmologists and medical professionals in pediatric eye care.

The 11th SPOSI Conference promises to be a landmark event, combining expert lectures, practical workshops, and a focus on pediatric eye health. With its emphasis on raising awareness and sharing cutting-edge knowledge, the conference will play a vital role in ensuring a brighter and healthier future for children.
