Day 2 at was a lesson in not taking anything at face value: not floaters, not reattached retinas and not algorithms that look great on paper. Three sessions did the unmasking.
—Retinal Disease Masquerades: Diagnostic Traps on Spotlight: Five questions to ask before calling a floater age-related, a standing order to always check the periphery, and a live four-case quiz that nobody in the room aced. https://mediamice.com/euretina-2026-retinal-disease-masquerades-diagnostic-traps/
—Reattached Is Not Restored: Retinal Detachment Evidence: Prof. David Steel brought a 19,000-case registry showing gas tamponades holding their own against oil, and Prof. Noemi Lois pressed on why a reattached retina so often falls short on vision. https://mediamice.com/retinal-detachment-evidence-euretina-2026/
—Beyond the Snapshot: Imaging and AI Rethink Diabetic Retinopathy at Euretina 2026: Prof. Stela Vujosevic made the case that acuity charts miss too much, and Prof. Adnan Tufail reminded the room that an impressive algorithm still has to survive an ordinary clinic day. https://mediamice.com/imaging-ai-diabetic-retinopathy-euretina-2026/
Meanwhile, the exhibition floor kept waltzing, with Astellas Pharma, Roche, Lumibird Medical and Appasamy Associates among the partners.
Here's Day 2's full dance card, with plenty more to come before the music stops: https://mediamice.com/retinas-masquerade-ball-day-2-euretina-2026/
