Dry eye is a chronic medical condition that develops when the eye's tear film does not lubricate and protect the eye's outer surface.
Please join RPB for a free webinar on April 15, 1pm – 2pm EDT on diabetic eye disease (DED). You’ll learn about new and emerging DED research from renowned vision scientists at Harvard Medical School, Massachusetts Eye and Ear, and the Scheie Eye Institute at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine. The presenters are recipients of the RPB / Mary Tyler Moore Vision Initiative Physician-Scientist Award and are experts in DED.

Everyone who registers will be sent a recording of the webinar after the event.
There will be a 15-minute Q&A after the speaker presentations when the audience can submit questions to the scientists.
We hope to see you there!
