Welcome to EUROLAM 2027
Prof. Dr. David Pelayes
President Eurolam Retina Scientific Society
A Global Convergence of Ophthalmic Excellence
In my capacity as President of the Eurolam Retina Scientific Society (European-Latin American Society of Retina Specialists), it is an honor and a privilege to extend to you our most cordial invitation to our inaugural congress—a historic event that will take place in the vibrant city of Mumbai, India, in January 2027.
This congress represents a milestone for our society and for the global ophthalmology community. For the first time, Eurolam Retina crosses continental boundaries to reach Asia, with the firm purpose of building a solid and lasting bridge between two of the most dynamic regions in the world: Latin America and Asia. We are convinced that this meeting will be the first step toward a long and fruitful scientific collaboration, uniting retina and vitreous specialists from both continents to share knowledge, experiences, and advances in our fascinating specialty.
The scientific program, which we are designing with the utmost rigor and enthusiasm, will address the most relevant and current topics in the field of retina and vitreous. We will feature the participation of world-renowned opinion leaders who will share their latest research and surgical techniques. Additionally, we will provide a platform for young researchers to present their work, thereby fostering intergenerational exchange and innovation.
Mumbai, a city of contrasts, history, and unparalleled energy, will be the perfect setting for this cultural and scientific exchange. We are confident that its hospitality and dynamism will enrich the experience of all attendees.
We look forward to your valued presence at this unprecedented event, which will mark the beginning of a new era of collaboration in ophthalmology. Together, we will strengthen the bonds that unite us and work jointly for the advancement of our specialty and the well-being of our patients.
Please accept our warmest regards,
Prof. Dr. David Pelayes

Eurolam Retina Scientific Society.
