This site was conceived and designed by Dr. Pierre ESCALAS. Its purpose is to create a forum for the exchange of experiences to facilitate the acquisition of skills in the field of oculoplastics. It is a form of digital mentorship that allows younger colleagues to benefit from the experience of older colleagues. This transmission is unselfish and takes place within the framework of a non-profit association (ADACO: Association for the Dissemination of Advances in Ocular Surgery).
A solidarity contribution is requested to cover operating costs and to avoid sponsorship from industry partners or others. The information requested is necessary to verify that you are a physician; it will not be transmitted or sold to anyone, nor will it be used for advertising purposes. Only if you wish, a newsletter will be sent to you when new videos are released or when we organize a face-to-face congress, on the web (webinar) or mixed.
The content of the site is defined by Dr. ESCALAS, and to guarantee maximum rigor, a scientific committee also evaluates this content. The cumulative experience of these surgeons represents tens of thousands of interventions.
