ARVO 2021: Revolutionary Eye and Vision Research

Innovation and advanced technologies have fostered significant discoveries in eye and vision research in the last decade rivaling those in any discipline. The theme of the 2021 ARVO Annual Meeting is the next revolution of clinically translating these discoveries to restore and preserve vision.

This year at ARVO 2021, Dr. Rohit Varma and team uncover new vision loss risk factors affecting African Americans, as well as the relationship between retinal nerve fiber layer thickness and visual field loss in a multiethnic glaucomatous population.
