Typically the program committee does not consider abstracts with previously published data. However, since the 2020 meeting was cancelled, some very good research has not yet been presented at a large meeting, but may have been very recently published. These abstracts will be considered this year by the program committee.
An optometrist may participate in AAPOS Virtual Meeting if he/she is:
An invited speaker on a symposium or a presenting author on a selected poster or
paper and a member of the American Academy of Optometry. Optometrists may not present on topics related to surgery or ophthalmic procedures.
