Child Vision and Visual Impairment Congress 12-14th July London

The Organizing committee look forward to welcoming you to the 18th Biennial Meeting of the CVRS!

We anticipate a wonderful meeting with world-leading state of the art research from our keynote speakers and invited speakers. We have had an outstanding number of submitted abstracts and will be looking forward to the active participation of researchers from across UK, Europe, USA and Australia and elsewhere sharing their latest research through open lectures and posters. We welcome early career researchers and students who will be sharing their study designs and research findings. 

We look forward to also meeting together to network and socially relax. We have organised a social programme with welcome reception and gala dinner and other events with this in mind. 

Some limited hybrid sessions may be available for those who are unable to attend the meeting in person for distance, low income country or health reasons; please let us know if you are interested.
