This list of continuing education opportunities for ophthalmologists
is published monthly as a service to readers to help them keep abreast of
meetings and courses of interest and importance. Presented by regional and
national location, the list is updated monthly and provides an easy reference
to continuing medical education (CME) courses. Accredited sponsors are encouraged
to notify the ARCHIVES of upcoming CME activities for inclusion in the list
free of charge. Listings will be published for 3 consecutive months and should
be received at least 5 months prior to date of course, eg, for a June course
by January 1 to be included in the March, April, and May issues. A course
held between the first and 14th days, inclusively, will appear in the preceding
month's issue. The listing cannot be published unless it contains the following
information: title, location, date(s), sponsor(s), and contact address. Optional
information includes CME category 1 hours of instruction, registration fee,
and guest speakers. Listings should be typed double-spaced with 2-inch left
and right margins. Send submissions to Editor, Archives of Ophthalmology,
