Welcome to University College Dublin (UCD)! If this is your first visit, you’ll find a spacious, green, and easy-to-navigate campus with modern facilities. The campus is well connected to Dublin city centre, with several bus stops nearby making travel quick and convenient. Cafés, restaurants, and walking paths on campus provide great spots to relax between sessions, ensuring a comfortable and enjoyable experience for all attendees.
We welcome ophthalmology-related submissions from current undergraduate health and medical science students, as well as Intern Year / FY1 & FY2 doctors.
All submitted abstracts will be reviewed, and authors will be notified of the outcome. Successful abstracts will be published in the Irish Medical Journal (IMJ).
