Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to inform you that we are organizing an international interdisciplinary symposium on “Neuro-Ophthalmology meets Vision Rehabilitation”.
The symposium aims to build a bridge between neuro-ophthalmology and vision rehabilitation to stimulate exchanges of ideas between the fields. We intend to illuminate the significance of lesions along the visual pathways and higher cortical areas from different perspectives. In addition, we would like to discuss innovative ways of measuring visual functions, as well as therapeutic and rehabilitative interventions.
The symposium will gather experienced speakers from various disciplines, providing a comprehensive perspective on neuro-ophthalmology and vision rehabilitation.
We will be happy to welcome you in Tübingen to this special event!
Prof. Dr. Karl-Ulrich Bartz-Schmidt,
Director of the Center for Ophthalmology
and
Prof. Dr. Susanne Trauzettel-Klosinski,
Head of Vision Rehabilitation Research Unit
