The Scientific Program offers scientists, educators, and clinicians the opportunity to exchange the latest information in optometry and vision science in two formats – research paper presentations and scientific posters.
The program is open to everyone and Academy membership is not required.
Submission Deadline
The 2023 Scientific Program submission window will open on May 1st and will close on May 31, 2023, 5:00 PM ET, for Academy 2023 New Orleans.
The Academy’s Scientific Program Committee invites you to participate in the educational program at the Academy’s annual meeting by submitting scientific abstracts for consideration.
The open enrollment period for abstract submissions and the submission deadline are announced at the beginning of each year via member communication outlets, including email, website, and social media. Early submission is encouraged. Due to the large number of abstract submissions, late submissions will NOT be considered.
