SimVis Technology at AECOS Europe 2026

AECOS Europe 2026 is an international symposium that brings together leading ophthalmic surgeons, researchers, and industry innovators to discuss the latest advances in refractive and cataract surgery. The meeting provides a platform for scientific exchange focused on clinical innovation, surgical decision-making, and emerging technologies shaping modern ophthalmology. During AECOS Europe 2026 in Madrid, 2EyesVision invites selected faculty and attendees to an exclusive scientific visit to the Visual Optics and Biophotonics Lab (VioBio), where much of the research behind SimVis technology originated and where vision science continues to translate into clinical tools supporting pre-surgical decision-making in everyday practice.
