Meetings & Lectures

The Stanford Center for Optic Disc Drusen at the Byers Eye Institute will host our 6th annual international conference to share laboratory and clinical advances on optic disc drusen, an orphan disease that is associated with vision loss and optic nerve calcification.

Our goal for this meeting is to seed collaborative opportunities, educate the public, and to strategize about how to rapidly advance the field. In 2025, we will focus on mechanisms of ectopic calcification and impact on metabolic health of the retinal ganglion cells. We will host an in-person poster session in the afternoon.

The lectures and discussions will also be available virtually through Zoom. Some of the lectures will be available at a later date on our website.

Any questions? Please send us a message by emailing OpticDiscDrusen@stanford.edu
