Welcome to the 21st SVRG Swiss Retina Update

Dear colleagues
Dear participants

It is with great pleasure that we invite you to the 21st SVRG Swiss Retina Update, which will take place on June 4, 2026 at the Kursaal Bern.

Under this year's theme “Retina update”, you can expect an exciting and varied scientific program. The event combines practical case studies with in-depth specialist presentations and places particular emphasis on promoting young talent in retina.

The RetinAwards supported by the SVRG will also be presented during the event - for the best experimental project and for the most clinically relevant work.

The Swiss Retina Update will be accompanied by an industry exhibition, which will provide space for direct exchange with our partners. Our sincere thanks go to all sponsors and exhibitors for their valuable support.

On behalf of the SVRG, we would like to extend a warm welcome to you and look forward to seeing you in person at the Swiss Retina Update in 2026.
