The symposium will be chaired by Ken Nischal USA/UK (WSPOS) and Marie-José Tassignon Belgium (ESCRS). Among the topics that will be discussed are "What can we take from the IATS Study?", "Are IOLs protective against glaucoma in children?", "Secondary IOLs: technique and timing" and "The learning curve with the BIL".
