Dear colleagues and friends,
It is my great pleasure to welcome you to the 42nd Annual Symposium of the Korean Glaucoma Society, which will be held on November 20–21, 2026, in Seoul, Korea.
The Korean Glaucoma Society continues to grow as a leading academic community dedicated to advancing glaucoma research, education, and patient care. Through sustained efforts and collaboration, we strive to address the evolving challenges in glaucoma management and to improve patient outcomes.
This year’s symposium will bring together distinguished speakers, researchers, and clinicians from around the world. We have prepared a comprehensive scientific program that highlights the latest developments in glaucoma, including emerging technologies, clinical innovations, and ongoing controversies in diagnosis and treatment.
In particular, our international sessions will provide a valuable platform for global academic exchange and collaboration. In addition, a substantial travel grant program has been prepared to support outstanding participants and to encourage broader international engagement.
The meeting will take place in Dongdaemun, a historic area of Seoul, at a venue located along the Seoul City Wall, where centuries-old heritage meets modern architecture—offering an inspiring setting for both academic exchange and collegial interaction.
On behalf of the Korean Glaucoma Society, I would like to express my sincere appreciation to all invited speakers, participants, sponsors, and organizing committee members for their contributions and support.
We hope that this symposium will offer an inspiring and meaningful experience for all attendees.
Warm regards,
President, Korean Glaucoma Society
Tae-Woo Kim
