Each of the UCSD Department of Ophthalmology Residents, American and International Fellows and some alumni presented original research encompassing a broad variety of topics. Over fifty Shiley Eye Center alumni from around the world attended. Leah Levi, M.D., Professor and Director of the Ophthalmology Residency Program, was the main moderator of the event.
