Let's get ready for London

Article

It's that time of year again and I'm sure most of you will be getting ready for Europe's largest annual congress, the 24th Congress of the ESCRS. I have to admit, although I have lived in England my whole life, London never ceases to amaze me. It's busy, expensive and sometimes can feel quite impersonal. That aside, it is a remarkable city. Its cosmopolitan nature gives rise to an eclectic mix of, amongst many other things, restaurants, bars, parks, theatres and shops. It's quite easy to feel spoilt for choice. So while you're visiting our wonderful capital, make sure you get out and sample the delights the city has to offer. Our quick guide to getting out and about in London (ESCRS Congress preview) gives you a little taste of what you might expect.

For those of you who will not be attending this year's congress, I'm pleased to say that you do not need to miss out on the action. Ophthalmology Times Europe can deliver news from the event, throughout the duration of the congress, direct to your desktop, ensuring you don't miss any of the important announcements. If you would like to receive our e-news daily update, just go to our website ( http://www.oteurope.com/) and subscribe for free to our e-newsletter.

I, and the rest of the Ophthalmology Times Europe team, look forward to seeing you in London.
