It is a pleasure to invite you to join the 9th Congress of International Society of Dacryology and Dry Eye which will take place in Istanbul. This triennial meeting will have participants from the basic and clinical science research on the tear disease. Both dacryology and the dysfunctional tear syndrome sessions are included in the program.Ocular surface, cornea- corneal surgery and oculoplastic sessions are placed as well.

Istanbul is a unique city at the crossroads of cultures, bridging the glorious past with promising future. It is a fascinating metropolis that offers something to anybody with its rich culture, architecture, landscape and cuisine. We believe it is a perfect site to bring the members of an International Society and colleaques from the New World, Europe, Middle East, and Asia together.
