Discover Our Mission
Building the Future of Retina, Together
Y-EVRS GLOBAL is the young community within the European VitreoRetinal Society Global. Created for residents, fellows, and early-career consultants, it offers a place to learn, connect, contribute, and grow within an international retina network.
Why Y-EVRS GLOBAL
A clearer path into retina
The path into retina and vitreoretinal surgery is demanding. Young colleagues need guidance, exposure, visibility and meaningful opportunities to participate.
Y-EVRS GLOBAL exists to make that path more accessible, more connected, and more engaging. It helps transform motivation into development, and attendance into active participation.
Our Pillars
Four pillars. One vision.
Education
Practical, high-quality learning through webinars, case discussions, clinical pearls, and content linked to the EVRS GLOBAL meeting.
Mentorship
Meaningful connection with senior retina specialists, with access to experience, guidance, and professional perspective.
Research
A platform where ideas can find collaborators, projects can grow, and young members can develop within an international network.
Community
A culture where contribution matters, active members are recognised, and belonging is built with purpose.
Our Vision
A pipeline for the future of retina
Our vision is to build the leading young retina community connected to EVRS GLOBAL. A platform for education, mentorship, collaboration, and leadership development.
Not only a network. A future for the next generation of retina specialists.
Membership
More than access. A real opportunity to grow.
Members gain practical education, focused case-based learning, access to mentors, opportunities for collaboration, peer connection across centres and countries and visibility within the EVRS GLOBAL ecosystem.
Y-EVRS GLOBAL is designed to help young ophthalmologists build confidence, direction, and a stronger place within the field.
