These symposia have always been a combination of relevant clinical thought, based on outstanding knowledge, and current research. In 1996 this tradition was continued with the symposium ""Peril to the Nerve - Ophthalmology"". From the latest discussions in the literature to provocative round tables and clinical controversy presentations, the participants discussed clinically useful topics in these fields.
