Nearly 200 ophthalmologists from across Iraq gathered in the Kurdish capital Erbil on Thursday for a major medical conference focused on the latest treatments for eye disorders.
“The event aims to showcase cutting-edge scientific advances in treating eye diseases and promote knowledge-sharing among specialists for the benefit of Iraqi citizens,” Dr. Bjar Musa, the event’s coordinator, told Shafaq News.
The discussions focused on three widespread conditions: cataracts, which often require surgical intervention; retinal damage caused by diabetes; and eye allergies linked to dust and high temperatures, which demand consistent preventive care.
