About the Vision Academy
Our mission statement
The Vision Academy provides ophthalmic specialists with a forum to share existing skills and knowledge, provide consensus guidance for managing clinically challenging situations, and lead the wider community in the drive toward optimized, compassionate patient care.
The Vision Academy is Co-Chaired by Professors Jean-François Korobelnik and Anat Loewenstein. Hear more about the Vision Academy from Professor Loewenstein in the video below.
The Vision Academy comprises an international group of more than 80 experts worldwide.
Through their collective expertise, the Vision Academy seeks to provide consensus guidance for managing clinically challenging situations, especially in areas of controversy or with insufficient conclusive evidence.

Challenging clinical situations
Disease insights, diagnosis, and monitoring
Providing care that considers the individual patient’s preferences and needs should be at the forefront of clinical decision-making. The ophthalmic community should be driven by patient values, with the patient placed centrally in the treatment decision pathway. Nonetheless, there are many disease complexities that require nuanced treatment and management. We aim to provide guidance that enables ophthalmologists to navigate these clinically challenging situations.

COVID-19
The lasting impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic have resulted in ongoing changes to clinical practice. We, in conjunction with the nAMD Barometer, have developed a range of materials to ensure ophthalmologists feel supported in making appropriate treatment decisions and to help patients better understand the safety measures put in place. These tools have been designed to be appropriate across a range of epidemic pressures and are available in multiple languages.
