Renowned Speakers

World Ophthalmology 2018

World Ophthalmology 2018 invites participants from all over the world to participate at the 3rd International Conference on Ophthalmology going to be held from July 10-11, 2018 at Bangkok ,Thailand. The theme of the conference is “Enhancing the Quality and Credibility of Ophthalmology”, which focuses on the significance of vision and latest technological developments in the field of Ophthalmology.

Track 1: Clinical and Surgical Ophthalmology

Clinical Ophthalmology will improve idea into normal visual illnesses, ophthalmic surgical and laser methodology, clinical life structures and visual therapeutics. Patients with eye diseases get examined by Ophthalmologists and Optometrists.

Surgical Ophthalmology is a sub-specialty of Ophthalmology, which includes surgeries like cataract surgery and laser eye surgery. Oculoplastic surgery-incorporates the organization of the eyelids, tear channels and re-gainful surgery, refractive surgery - is a process for progressing the vision. LASIK is the most performed kind of refractive surgery is (laser-assisted with situ keratomileusis), where cornea is reshaped using a laser.These methods which are used to perform surgery commonly known as Optometry.

 Glaucoma surgery may be a laser or non-laser, is the procedure for achieving main results like decreasing the production of intraocular fluid (aqueous humor) or increasing the drainage of this same fluid.

Track 4Glaucoma

Glaucoma is a multifactorial optic neuropathy that influences more than 50 million populace and is the second driving reason for visual deficiency around the world. Glaucoma is brought on because of the harm of the optic nerve , which prompts to high intraocular weight and on the off chance that it is untreated then it will increments to vision misfortune with the start of imperceptibly blind sides at the edges of visual field took after by visual deficiency. Optic nerve harm is the primary driver for glaucoma alongside the few fundamental causes which are obscure. As indicated by world wellbeing association (WHO) glaucoma is the second real reason for visual deficiency over the globe. The clutters can be generally partitioned into two principle classifications, open-point glaucoma and shut edge glaucoma.

Track 5:Neuro Ophthalmology

It is the solidification of neurology and ophthalmology consistently overseeing complex systemic ailments that have signs in the visual structure. Neuro-ophthalmology takes a view at the life frameworks, physiology, clinical scrambles or treatment of the afferent visual pathway, higher cortical visual structures, the vascular tree huge to the retina and optic nerve, understudies, eye advancements and torment. Cerebral Visual Impairment (CVI) joins each and every visual brokenness brought on by mischief to, or falling flat of, the retrochiasmatic visual pathways without damage to the front visual pathways or any critical visual disease. Myasthenia gravis is made by a breakdown in the consistent correspondence among nerves and muscles which prompts two fold vision, hanging eyelids and unmistakable muscles inadequacy which affecting the both i.e. neuromuscular movement other than vision. Then again nystagmus which is modified eye progression procured in starting or now and again not far-removed that may accomplish reduced or constrained vision. Symptomatic instruments in Neuro-ophthalmologyare utilized to explore and to treat the unmistakable state of Neuro-ophthalmology as Neonatal visual examination are essentially performed to screen the vicinity and improvement of Retinopathy of Prematurity. Symptomatic gadgets in Neuro-ophthalmology are used to investigate and to treat the distinctive condition of Neuro-ophthalmology as Neonatal visual examination are basically performed to screen the closeness and development of Retinopathy of Prematurity.

Track 10: Cataract and Refractive Surgery

A refractive error, for example, partial blindness (near sightedness), farsightedness (hyperopia), astigmatism or presbyopia, refractive surgery is a strategy for revising or enhancing vision. There are different surgical methods for modifying eye's centering capacity by reshaping the cornea, or clear, round vault at the front of your eye. Different techniques include embedding a focal point inside the eye. The most generally performed kind of refractive surgery is LASIK (laser-aided situ keratomileusis), where a laser is utilized to reshape the cornea. For individuals who are myopic, certain refractive surgery systems will diminish the bend of a cornea that is excessively steep so that the eye's centering power is reduced. Pictures that are engaged before the retina, because of a more drawn out eye or soak corneal bend, are driven nearer to or specifically onto the retina following surgery. Pictures that are locked in past the retina, due to a short eye or level cornea, will be pulled closer to or particularly onto the retina after surgery.

Track 11: Macular Degeneration

Macular degeneration, otherwise called age-related macular degeneration (AMD or ARMD), is a medicinal condition which may bring about obscured or no vision in the focal point of the visual field. At an opportune time there are frequently no manifestations. After some time, in any case, a few people encounter a progressive compounding of vision that may influence one or the two eyes. While it doesn't bring about total visual impairment, loss of focal vision can make it difficult to perceive faces, drive, read, or perform different exercises of day by day life. Visual mind flights may likewise happen and these don't speak to a psychological sickness. Macular degeneration commonly happens in more seasoned individuals. Hereditary factors and smoking likewise assume a part. It is because of harm to the macula of the retina. Conclusion is by an entire eye exam. The seriousness is separated into right on time, middle, and late sorts. The late sort is also isolated into "dry" and "wet" structures with the go shape making away 90% of cases. Avoidance incorporates working out, eating admirably, and not smoking. Cancer prevention agent vitamins and minerals don't seem, by all accounts, to be valuable for counteractive action. There is no cure or treatment that profits vision officially lost. In the wet shape, hostile to VEGF drug infused into the eye or less regularly laser coagulation or photodynamic treatment may moderate intensifying. Supplements in the individuals who as of now have the illness may moderate movement. In 2015 it influenced 6.2 million individuals internationally. In 2013 it was the fourth most normal reason for visual impairment after waterfalls, preterm birth, and glaucoma. It most ordinarily happens in individuals beyond fifty years old and in the United States is the most widely recognized reason for vision misfortune in this age gathering. Around 0.4% of individuals in the vicinity of 50 and 60 have the illness, while it happens in 0.7% of individuals 60 to 70, 2.3% of those 70 to 80, and almost 12% of individuals more than 80 years of age.

Track 12 : Keratoprosthesis

Keratoprosthesis is a surgical strategy where a sick cornea is supplanted with a simulated cornea. Customarily, keratoprosthesis is prescribed after a man has had a disappointment of at least one benefactor corneal transplants. All the more as of late, a less obtrusive, non-entering counterfeit cornea has been produced which can be utilized as a part of more normal instances of corneal visual deficiency. While customary cornea transplant utilizes benefactor tissue for transplant, a counterfeit cornea is utilized as a part of the Keratoprosthesis methodology. The surgery is performed to reestablish vision in patients experiencing extremely harmed cornea because of intrinsic birth abandons, diseases, wounds and consumes.

Keratoprothesis are made of clear plastic with incredible tissue resistance and optical properties. They shift in configuration, measure and even the implantation systems may vary crosswise over various treatment focuses. The strategy is finished by ophthalmologists, frequently on an outpatient premise.

 Track 13: Medicolegal Aspects

Keeping clear, accurate and contemporaneous patient records is a prime responsibility of all medical practitioners. Patient records make effective healthcare possible. They document treatment and outcomes, and in a medico-legal context, they serve to demonstrate professional integrity and justify what you did. It is little wonder then, that when patients complain or make a claim, your medical records - how accurate and sensitive they are, and how you kept them - can come under intense scrutiny. Make them robust enough to withstand that scrutiny, particularly as patients now have rights to access paper and electronic records.

History:  As it applies to the condition and relevant past history including concurrent illnesses, medications and allergies.

Examination of the patient: include positive and relevant negative findings, and record all pertinent observations and measurements (e.g. pulse, temperature, BP).

Diagnosis: record this clearly and concisely, justifying how the conclusion was reached and recording any uncertainties or differentials.

Investigations: including lab results and imaging such as X-rays or scans.

Management: record drugs prescribed and administered with dosage, and other treatments, such as physiotherapy.

Follow up and referral: include details of follow-up tests, future appointments and referrals.

Patient information: include details of discussions regarding risk-benefit, treatment plan, prognosis and potential complications.

Consent: record consent given, ensuring that it take into account the above.

Track 14: Visual Vertigo

Vertigo is a symptom where a person feels as if they or the objects around them are moving when they are not. Often it feels like a spinning or swaying movement. This may be associated with nauseavomiting, sweating, or difficulties walking. It is typically worse when the head is moved. Vertigo is the most common type of dizziness.

The most common diseases that result in vertigo are benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), Ménière's disease, and labyrinthitis. Less common causes include stroke, brain tumors, brain injury, multiple sclerosis, migraines, trauma, and uneven pressures between the middle ears. Physiologic vertigo may occur following being exposed to motion for a prolonged period such as when on a ship or simply following spinning with the eyes closed. Other causes may include toxin exposures such as to carbon monoxide, alcohol, or aspirin. Vertigo typically indicates a problem in a part of the vestibular system. Other causes of dizziness include presyncopedisequilibrium, and non-specific dizziness.

Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo is more likely in someone who gets repeated episodes of vertigo with movement and is otherwise normal between these episodes. The episodes of vertigo should last less than one minute. The Dix-Hallpike test typically produces a period of rapid eye movements known as nystagmus in this condition.  In Ménière's disease there is often ringing in the earshearing loss, and the attacks of vertigo last more than twenty minutes. In labyrinthitis the onset of vertigo is sudden and the nystagmus occurs without movement. In this condition vertigo can last for days. More severe causes should also be considered. This is especially true if other problems such as weakness, headache, double vision, or numbness occur.

Dizziness affects approximately 20–40% of people at some point in time, while about 7.5–10% have vertigo. About 5% have vertigo in a given year. It becomes more common with age and affects women two to three times more often than men. Vertigo accounts for about 2–3% of emergency department visits in the developed world.

Track 15: Vestibulo–ocular reflex

The vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) is a reflex, where activation of the vestibular system causes eye movement. This reflex functions to stabilize images on the retinas (in yoked vision) during head movement by producing eye movements in the direction opposite to head movement, thus preserving the image on the center of the visual field(s). For example, when the head moves to the right, the eyes move to the left, and vice versa. Since slight head movement is present all the time, VOR is necessary for stabilizing vision: patients whose VOR is impaired find it difficult to read using print, because they cannot stabilize the eyes during small head tremors, and also because damage to the VOR can cause vestibular nystagmus.

The VOR does not depend on visual input. It can be elicited by caloric (hot or cold) stimulation of the inner ear, and works even in total darkness or when the eyes are closed. However, in the presence of light, the fixation reflex is also added to the movement.

In other animals, the gravity organs and eyes are strictly connected. A fish, for instance, moves its eyes by reflex when its tail is moved. Humans have semicircular canals, neck muscle "stretch" receptors, and the utricle (gravity organ). Though the semicircular canals cause most of the reflexes which are responsive to acceleration, the maintaining of balance is mediated by the stretch of neck muscles and the pull of gravity on the utricle (otolith organ) of the inner ear.

The VOR has both rotational and translational aspects. When the head rotates about any axis (horizontal, vertical, or torsional) distant visual images are stabilized by rotating the eyes about the same axis, but in the opposite direction. When the head translates, for example during walking, the visual fixation point is maintained by rotating gaze direction in the opposite direction, by an amount that depends on distance.

World Ophthalmology 2018 market research:

After a huge downfall of the market during economic drain in 2008-2009, ophthalmology market is catching up to get back to the normal as there is a rapid growth in population resulting in increased number of patients with eye diseases and the incidence of cataract and glaucoma are increasing every year.

According to a study it is estimated that around 48% of world population is blind because of cataract and more than 60 million people suffer from glaucoma and it is estimated that the number would rise to 80 million by the end of 2020. Ageing population is the leading cause for refractive error problem in countries like the USA and Europe, it is noticed that the refractive error problem is mostly seen in population ageing more than 40 years.

Ophthalmology market is mainly divided in to four segments viz, surgical devices, diagnostic and monitoring devices, vision care and ophthalmic drugs.

Importance and scope:

Ophthalmology 2018 enhances ophthalmic education to improve eye care Institutes like (NIE, Wilmer are involved) Contribute to preservation and restoration of vision around the world.

Ophthalmology continues to be an attractive field of medicine with great opportunities.

According to WHO :

  • 285 million people are estimated to be visually impaired worldwide: 39 million are blind and 246 have low vision.
  • About 90% of the world’s visually impaired live in low-income settings.
  • 82% of people living with blindness are aged 50 and above.
  • Globally, uncorrected refractive errors are the main cause of moderate and severe visual impairment; cataracts remain the leading cause of blindness in middle- and low-income countries.
  • The number of people visually impaired from infectious diseases has reduced in the last 20 years according to global estimates work.
  • 80% of all visual impairment can be prevented or cured.
  • Cataract removal is the most commonly performed ophthalmic surgical operation.

Why Bangkok?

Bangkok is the capital and most populous city of the Kingdom of Thailand. It is known in Thaias Krung Thep Maha Nakhon  or simply Krung Thep . The city occupies 1,568.7 square kilometres (605.7 sq mi) in the Chao Phraya River delta in Central Thailand, and has a population of over 8 million, or 12.6 percent of the country's population. Over 14 million people (22.2 percent) live within the surrounding Bangkok Metropolitan Region, making Bangkok an extreme primate city, significantly dwarfing Thailand's other urban centres in terms of importance.

It is also "The city of angels, the great city, the residence of the Emerald Buddha, the impregnable city (of Ayutthaya) of God Indra, the grand capital of the world endowed with nine precious gems, the happy city, abounding in an enormous Royal Palace that resembles the heavenly abode where reigns the reincarnated god, a city given by Indra and built by Vishnukarn."
