SUMMARY:Event | Optical Technologies For Improving Eye Care
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a special presentation: “Optical Technologies For Improving Eye Care”\, where professor Susana Marcos will address technologies such as wavefront sensing\, visual simulators\, fully quantitative optical coherence tomography and elastography\, and new correction alternatives that they have inspired\, with an emphasis in their translation to the ophthalmology clinic and widespread use in the population. \n\n\n\nAbstract\nOptical technologies such as adaptive optics and high-resolution imaging have made their way from often distant fields (for example astronomy) to the visual optics laboratory. Recently some of these technologies have made their way to the clinical practice\, leading to personalized surgical guidance and treatments. This lecture will address technologies such as wavefront sensing\, visual simulators\, fully quantitative optical coherence tomography and elastography\, and new correction alternatives that they have inspired\, with an emphasis in their translation to the ophthalmology clinic and widespread use in the population.\n \n\n\n\n\nSpeakers Bio\nSusana Marcos is currently the David R Williams Director of the Center for Visual Science\, Nicholas George Professor of Optics at the Institute of Optics and Professor of Ophthalmology at the Flaum Eye Institute\, at the University of Rochester\, New York. She is the former Director of the Institute of Optics at the National Research Council in Spain. Susana Marcos obtained her PhD in Physics at the University of Salamanca\, Spain\, and was a Fulbright and Human Frontier Postdoctoral Fellow at the Schepens Eye Research Institute of Harvard University. She is a leading researcher in visual optics\, having pioneered multiple technologies of eye optical imaging diagnostics and treatments\, including novel IOL designs. Shas published more than 230 highly cited publications\, is a co-inventor of 28 patents and co-founder of two spin-out companies (Plenoptika and 2EyesVision). She is a Fellow of Optica\, European Optical Society \,and the Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology. Her work has been recognized with numerous awards including the Adolph Lomb Medal\, the Edwin Land Medal\, and the Edgar Tillyer Medal of Optica (formerly Optical Society of America)\, the ICO Prize by the International Commission for Optics\, the Ramon y Cajal Medal by the Royal Academy of Sciences\, the Alcon Award\, the Physics\, Innovation and Technology Award by the Royal Society of Physics\, or the National Research Award Leonardo Torres Quevedo in Engineering by the Spanish Government\, the Jaime I Award (the last two presented by the King of Spain).\n\n\nDate and Time\nThursday\, May 21\, 2026\, 5:45 PM until 8:45 PM \nLocation\nOptikos\nBldg 3\n107 Audubon Road\nWakefield\, MA 01880\nUSA \nRegistration Info\nRegistration is required\nPayment in Full In Advance Or At Event\nRegister on NES Optica Event page: Register Now\n\n\n\nSchedule\n5:45-6:30PM   Networking\n6:30-7:30PM   Dinner\n7:30-8:45PM   Presentation \nRegistration is free for the presentation\, either in person or on Zoom.
