In early June, Dr. Heintz attended the prestigious AECOS Congress in London, an international event that brings together leading ophthalmologists from around the world. Alongside colleagues Dr. Van Keer (OAMM), Dr. Mertens (Medipolis), Dr. Vryghem (Brussels Eye Doctors), and Dr. De Wilde (Eyecenter Oogartsen), he represented the Signifeye group at this inspiring congress.

At AECOS (American-European Congress of Ophthalmic Surgery), the latest advancements in surgical ophthalmology were discussed \u2014 from innovative treatment techniques to cutting-edge technologies. Dr. Heintz attended several panel discussions, including a captivating session on emerging treatments.
By actively engaging in this international exchange of knowledge and expertise, we ensure that the latest insights also find their way into our daily practice. This is how we continue to build progressive, high-quality eye care \u2014 always with our patients as the top priority.
