EDITOR’S MESSAGE
An integral part of the annual meeting of the American Academy of Ophthalmology has always been walking the exhibit hall floor to check out the new products and technologies that are available to help us as retina specialists improve patient care and practice. Retinal Physician has invited leading vendors to provide information about and insight into their new product offerings. In this year’s AAO Retina Product Pavilion, you will find a display of the latest technologies that companies have recently brought to market. A link is included for a deeper dive into these companies and product features. You will also be receiving an email of this Retina Product Pavilion feature with direct links to these vendor and product websites.
I am always amazed at the innovation and breakthroughs taking place in our field. Patient care usually begins with technology, and the following products are here to do just that — to help improve your patient outcomes and practice success. Thank you to our product vendors!
