Cole Eye Institute and the Byers Eye Institute (COBRA) Series

NEXT COBRA SESSION:  Monday, August 17, 2026

Overview

Surgical retina fellows from the Cole Eye Institute and Byers Eye Institute host surgical video round geared towards retina fellows. During this live session, retina fellows present cases that highlight techniques, surgical decision trees and core principles of retina surgery. A panel of retina faculty members will comment and offer observations based on the videos. During these dynamic discussions, retina surgical pearls for the retina fellow and early career retina surgeon will be readily identified. Cases selected for discussion will include some straight-forward procedures where the “fundamentals” will be identified. Additionally, review of more complicated cases will allow viewers to dissect the steps to manage these difficult procedures. Panelists will include fellowship directors and younger faculty from both the Cole Eye Institute and Byers Eye Institute.
