I’m a 33 year old ophthalmologist from the University of Szeged, Hungary, training to be a glacuoma specialist. I’ve completed two ESASO modules cataract and glacuoma. I was fortunate to apply for an ESASO observership based on the test results of the latter, I was given the possibility of a one month visit to Prof. Carlo Traverso in Genova, Italy. The clinical attachment was composed of outpatient

visits and considerable time spent in the operating room. We had thourough glaucoma case discussions which were perfect for receiving feedback from a professional. I learned many surgical tips and tricks that I will definitely implement in my everyday practice. Professor Traverso is a truly inspiring teacher, seeing him work and literally guiding the hands of residents while performing interventions was an experience I will surely not forget for a long time.
