About BIPOSA

Welcome to BIPOSA

BIPOSA is an association for those committed to enhancing the care of children with eye and vision problems and adults with eye movement and alignment problems. We were formed after an amalgamation of the British Isles Squint Association and the Childrens’ Eye Group and we had our first combined meeting in 2007.

Members of the association include surgeons specialising in children’s eye care and adult strabismus surgery, and orthoptists who are specialists in children’s vision assessment and eye movement problems. Associate members include paediatric / strabismus fellows, overseas paediatric ophthalmologists, vision scientists and researchers with a special interest in children’s vision problems. We are committed to education, research for the benefit of all, and to developing the paediatric ophthalmologists of tomorrow.
