EUCORNEA

Taking a moment to reflect at the end of 2025, some of the many highlights of the year included:

• Hosting the 16th Eucornea Congress in the majestic city of Prague, with wetlabs and an IME symposium making a welcome return to our growing programme.
• Participating in numerous international congresses across Europe and around the world – from Crete to Lisbon and the Algarve, and New Delhi to Goa
• Establishing a Delphi Panel on Microbial Keratitis and working with the following societies worldwide (The Cornea Society, Asia Cornea Society, PanCornea, ESCRS, DEOSS and the Australia New Zealand Cornea Society) to complete this hugely important project in 2026 which will make a difference to lives in the future.

These and other Eucornea activities in 2025 were made possible thanks to the dedication, time and energy of our strong and active Board, as well as our hardworking administrative team. The addition of our wonderful Young Academic Committee also contributed in many valuable ways, helping us evolve and look to the future.

We are grateful to our members, speakers and industry partners whose generous commitment of time and expertise, through ongoing engagement and collaboration helps us remain a strong, impactful and forward-looking community.

We are very much looking forward to the 17th Eucornea Congress, which will take place in the beautiful city of Porto. For information about the upcoming congress, as well as highlights from the past year,  please visit our website at www.eucornea.org.

As I sign off for 2025, I once again wish you a happy and peaceful season ahead.

Mario Nubile.
Eucornea President
