Dear colleagues, dear friends!

On behalf of the Board of Directors of the Serbian Glaucoma Society, the Organizing Committee of the Congress and our sponsor friends who, despite global problems in the pharmaceutical industry, recognized the importance of the Congress as a place to promote their activities, we thank you for attending and taking active part in unforgettable 4th Congress of the Serbian Glaucoma Society with international participation, which was traditionally held on Kopaonik from 16-19. May 2019.

Over 300 participants in the Congress showed and proved that glaucomatology in Serbia and the region, as a subspecialist branch, has a future.

In addition to invited lectures, free topics and 8 courses presented by eminent lecturers from our country and abroad, as well as the first Serbian-Turkish symposium, we emphasize the importance of including young Serbian ophthalmologists who through adequate courses under the mentorship of more experienced colleagues, showed enviable knowledge and interest in mastering diagnostic skills and therapeutic doctrines in glaucomatology.

We have continued, as before, the tradition of holding this Congress in the spirit of the Congress slogan: Dum docent discunt (While we teach others, we learn ourselves).

See you, hang out and learn at the next 5th Congress of the Serbian Glaucoma Society with international participation on Kopaonik.

President of the Serbian Glaucoma Society

Prof. Dr. Nikola Babic
