Las Américas FacoElche has established itself as a benchmark for training, scientific exchange and updates in cataract and lens surgery, bringing together ophthalmologists from around the world.
This meeting was created with a clear purpose: to share real surgical experience, bring technological innovation closer to daily practice, and strengthen academic and professional ties between specialists.
A meeting focused on surgical excellence
The main focus is live surgery and the analysis of clinical cases, allowing attendees to observe firsthand advanced surgical techniques, the resolution of complex situations, and real-time decision-making. This hands-on approach makes the event a valuable educational tool that combines experience and innovation.
The content typically ranges from standard phacoemulsification to highly complex cases: hard cataracts, pseudoexfoliation, refractive lens surgery, premium lenses and complication management.
Innovation, technology and intraocular lenses
Las Américas FacoElche places special emphasis on technological innovation applied to surgery. State-of-the-art phacoemulsification platforms, advanced visualization systems, and new intraocular lens designs are part of the scientific discussion.
Personalizing surgery through toric, multifocal, and extended-range vision lenses is a key focus, aligning with the current trend of offering visual solutions tailored to the patient’s needs and lifestyle.
A space for international collaboration
One of the distinguishing features of this meeting is its international scope. The participation of renowned surgeons fosters the exchange of diverse approaches, protocols, and clinical experiences, enriching global ophthalmological practice. Furthermore, leading suppliers and collaborators in the ophthalmological sector, pioneers in the latest clinical advancements, gather to participate.
