“My name is Abdulhameed H. Mahmood, I’m a 31 year old Bahraini Ophthalmologist and I work at Salmaniya Medical Complex in Bahrain, as a senior Ophthalmology Registrar.
I’ve read online about the ESASO modules a few years back during my early residency years. I’ve always wanted to attend one or two modules, and I finally had the opportunity to attend the Cornea and Corneal Refractive Surgery Module in Lugano this year.
It was an amazing experience, to meet and be taught by world-renowned professors and ophthalmologists like Prof. Harminder Dua and Dr. José Güell. The lectures were very informative and provided us with a lot of new knowledge, especially when the lecturers share their own experience and surgical videos, and stimulate discussion among participants.
The opportunity to meet fellow ophthalmologists from all over the world, and share our experiences with them was definitely an added bonus, and it can potentially facilitate further collaboration between ophthalmologists from different parts of the world in the future.
Overall, I enjoyed my experience attending this module, and I will definitely try to attend more ESASO modules in the future.”
