Help Inform ASCRS’s Upcoming Cataract Awareness Month Efforts

June is Cataract Awareness Month. ASCRS, as the Society dedicated to cataract surgeons, is already beginning to put together materials in recognition of this month.

This year, the Society is going to focus on patient education—what you, the surgeon, want the patient to know about cataract surgery.

Please take our 2-minute survey to help inform what you want patients to know most about the procedure.

ASCRS 2023: For Every MD at Every Stage

The ASCRS Annual Meeting is not only specifically tailored for the anterior segment surgeon, but there are elements of the meeting that are geared toward surgeons at different stages of their career.

There are programming, events, and engagement opportunities for young eye surgeons (YES), mid-career physicians, and members who are later in their career stage.
