Dear Seniors and Friends,
At the outset let me thank the Office bearers of OPAI for trusting Giridhar Eye Institute and the Oculoplasty team in Kerala for conducting the next Annual conference in 2026, from the 24th to 26th of April, at Kochi.
Kochi, known as the “Queen of the Arabian Sea” is a vibrant metropolis with infrastructure to host medical Conferences of any magnitude. We also have a great organizing team in Kerala, fresh out of the 2023 AIOC. Kochi is also the gateway to the beautiful state of Kerala very aptly called “God's Own Country”.
We are super excited to hold this Annual meeting of OPAI and are leaving no stone unturned to make it a memorable one.
On behalf of the Organizing Committee of OPAI 2024, I extend a warm welcome to each one of you. Let's Come together, Connect and Collaborate to offer cutting edge care to our Oculoplasty and Ocular Oncology patients.
Come and enjoy our warm hospitality
Dr. S J Saikumar
Chairman, Organizing Committee
