TU-46 Ophthalmic Premier League (OPL)

This is a session called the Ophthalmic Premier League (OPL) to be conducted in the WOC 2010 in Berlin. This is similar to the European league games but with a difference as the OPL is connected to ophthalmology. There will be 4 teams with 4 captains, and each will have a total of 4 members in the team. Each team member will be given 4 minutes to show his or her most challenging cataract / complication cataract case using videos. In the video the speaker will need to show how he or she managed this case. There will be a good discussion on each case for the remaining time. There will be an ARS (Automatic response system) if available for audience to enjoy and vote which is the best team. All the speakers will have to be top class with excellent videos.
