Dear Friends and Colleagues,

I am very honored to be the President of the 17th Joint Meeting of Japan-Korea-China Ophthalmologists. It is a significant responsibility to serve as president of this historic joint meeting.

We are uniting ophthalmology specialists from Korea, China, and Japan to share the latest knowledge and new ideas in our field. Our goal is to spread this information worldwide, particularly to assist young ophthalmologists in growing and shaping the future of eye care. We also look forward to researchers from these countries meeting each other, making new friends, and expanding their professional networks.

This year, for the first time, the conference will be held in Tokyo, Japan. Tokyo is an exciting city rich in culture, history, and modern attractions. I also encourage you to enjoy our delicious Japanese food and “Sake” during your visit.

We really hope many of you can come. Looking forward to seeing you in Tokyo!

With best regards,

Yuichi HORI, MD, PhD
President of the 17th Joint Meeting of Japan-Korea-China Ophthalmologists
