About the Gonioscopy Session
Gonioscopy is a crucial diagnostic procedure in ophthalmology used to examine the iridocorneal angle—the area where the iris meets the cornea. It helps in assessing conditions like glaucoma by evaluating the drainage angle of the eye. During gonioscopy, a special lens is placed on the patient's eye after numbing it with eye drops. This lens allows the ophthalmologist to visualize and classify the angle structures—Schwalbe's line, trabecular meshwork, scleral spur, and ciliary body—based on their appearance. The procedure helps determine whether the angle is open, narrow, or closed, influencing treatment decisions. Gonioscopy is essential for accurate diagnosis and management of various types of glaucoma, guiding therapeutic approaches such as medications, laser therapy, or surgery aimed at reducing intraocular pressure and preserving vision. Regular gonioscopic examinations are crucial in monitoring disease progression and adjusting treatment plans as needed.

Gonioscopy Conference 2027 — FAQs
What is the Gonioscopy track at IOC 2027?
The Gonioscopy track is a dedicated stream within IOC 2027 covering the latest research, clinical innovation, and best practice in Gonioscopy. It brings together researchers, educators, and practitioners for oral presentations, posters, and discussion.
Who should attend the Gonioscopy sessions?
Ophthalmologists, optometrists, vision scientists, educators, doctoral students, and trainees with an interest in Gonioscopy are all welcome — whether presenting or attending.
Can I present my research in the Gonioscopy track?
Yes. Submit an abstract for oral or poster presentation. All submissions are peer-reviewed by the scientific committee; accepted abstracts appear in the indexed proceedings.
Is virtual attendance available for Gonioscopy sessions?
Yes. IOC 2027 is a hybrid conference — attend the Gonioscopy track in person in Singapore or join live online, with on-demand access afterward.
