Up Next: VBS Medical Rounds
Tuesday February 10, 2026
8:30pm EST
Medical Rounds offer an engaging, informal deep dive into some of the most fascinating medical retina cases—designed especially for fellows and early-career retina specialists looking to sharpen their clinical insight and decision-making. Our moderators will be Drs. Yewlin Chee, Matt McKay and Tedi Begaj.
We are inviting videos from fellows-in-training. Join us as a presenter for this Medical Rounds session! Please submit a PowerPoint-based presentation featuring a compelling retina case, including case history, clinical presentation, relevant imaging and/or labs, treatment (if applicable), and clinical course—depending on the current stage of the case. Unresolved or “mystery” cases are also encouraged! Teaching slides are not required. Presentations should aim for 12 slides or less, in 8 minutes, with two minutes of discussion. The cases will be reviewed and about five (5) presentations will be selected for this session.
Please send your presentation to Dr. Yewlin Chee (yewlin.chee@gmail.com) and Dr. Matt McKay (kmmckay@mgb.org). The deadline for submission is Sunday, February, 1, 2026 11:59p ET.
We look forward to seeing you at VBS Medical Rounds!
