My name is Eugenijus Žvykas, 31 year’s old ophthalmologist working in Panevėžys Republican Hospital, Lithuania.
I have found ESASO on internet after looking for the best options on how to learn to prevent complications and to cope with them during cataract surgery.

I have attended the “Basic Cataract and Intraocular Refractive Surgery” Module, which I found amazing in all the aspects. The half day-long theoretic lectures from leading specialist in the field, where active discussions took more time than the plain lecture. I was amazed by how many tips and tricks can be given during 5 days. Some of them have solved even the issues which I even have not noticed I have before. More then theory, I enjoyed the opportunity to have individual consultations during the wet and dry lab sessions, which was very valuable because the participants had very different experiences in cataract surgery. After the module, I feel a lot more confident during my daily surgeries. I would totally recommend it for everyone no matter what experience you have, you will improve in many ways.

I hope to come back to other subspeciality modules soon.
