Dear Esteemed Delegates, Colleagues and Friends,

It is with sincere pleasure and a deep sense of pride that I welcome you to the 15th Conjoint Ophthalmology Scientific Conference (COSC) 2026.

Over the years, COSC has grown into more than a scientific meeting — it has become a community. It is where colleagues become collaborators, mentors meet future leaders, and friendships are formed alongside professional partnerships. Each edition reflects the dedication of countless individuals who share a common passion for advancing ophthalmic care.

This year’s theme, “From Basics to Breakthroughs: Foundations in Eye Care and Frontiers in Ocular Oncology,” speaks to the heart of what we do — strengthening our foundations while courageously moving towards innovation for the benefit of our patients.

COSC 2026 brings together an exceptional faculty and a thoughtfully curated scientific programme designed to inspire, challenge, and support every participant, regardless of career stage. We hope that the conversations, shared experiences, and renewed connections over these days will continue to guide your work long after the conference ends.

Thank you for being part of our COSC family. We are truly honoured to welcome you and look forward to sharing a meaningful and memorable conference together.

Warmest regards,

Associate Professor Dr Nor Fadhilah Mohamad
Organising Chairperson, COSC 2026

Dear Friends and Colleagues,

It is with great enthusiasm that I welcome you to the 15th Conjoint Ophthalmology Scientific Conference (COSC) 2026, set in the vibrant city of Kuala Lumpur. This year, our theme “From Basics to Breakthroughs: Foundations in Eye Care and Frontiers in Ocular Oncology” reflects our commitment to building clinical excellence from the ground up, while exploring cutting-edge advances that will shape the future of ophthalmology. As the Scientific Chair, I am honoured to present this year’s programme one that blends clinical excellence, scientific innovation, and real-world relevance for every ophthalmic practitioner.

This year, we’ve reimagined COSC into a comprehensive and immersive learning experience, structured across two parallel tracks to cater to a wide spectrum of interests and expertise. Whether you’re a trainee, general ophthalmologist, or subspecialist, our sessions are designed to challenge your thinking, sharpen your practice, and strengthen collaboration.

With over 30 scientific sessions, expert panels, tumour boards, allied health symposia, and networking opportunities — COSC 2026 is more than a conference. It’s a meeting of minds and a celebration of our shared pursuit to advance eye care in the region and beyond.

We invite you to learn, connect, and be inspired. Thank you for being part of this journey — and we look forward to seeing you in Kuala Lumpur!

Warm regards,

Dr. Fazliana Ismail
Scientific Chairperson, COSC 2026
