Welcome Message
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful,
I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude and admiration to the representatives from all divisions within Malaysian Ophthalmology who have united in their commitment to build a stronger Eye Community and enhance services for the rakyat of our beloved nation.
The inaugural Malaysian Ophthalmology Scientific Congress (MOSC) is a major milestone in promoting collaboration. It is fitting that we begin this journey alongside our esteemed colleagues from the Ministry of Health, right in the heart of Kuala Lumpur.
Our shared vision is to break down the traditional barriers separating trainees from consultants, private practice from public service, and services from academia. Through MOSC, we aspire to create a dynamic platform where the latest research, surgical techniques, and knowledge can be shared under one roof.
My sincere congratulations to the organising committee and sponsors who have embraced this vision and worked tirelessly to bring it to life. Let us all take pride in playing our part in this historic moment for Malaysian Ophthalmology.
With Warmest Regards,
Dr Miswan Muiz Mahyudin
