Scope is proud to support the UKEGS Video Competition

UKEGS is pleased to announce an exciting opportunity for its members to participate in the upcoming annual conference scheduled to take place from the 5–6 November 2025 in Edinburgh. This year’s event will showcase a curated selection of short videos that highlight innovative and impactful work in the field of glaucoma. The initiative aims to provide a platform for professionals to share clinical insights and learnings that contribute meaningfully to glaucoma care.

Members are encouraged to submit video entry before the closing date on 29th of September 2025. Whether it’s a surgical technique, a compelling patient case, or a novel educational project, the submissions will be evaluated for their clarity, relevance, and potential to influence future practice. Selected videos will be presented live at the conference, offering authors a valuable opportunity to engage with peers and experts during the dedicated session on the afternoon of 6 November.

Who Can Apply?

Submissions are open exclusively to UKEGS members. If you’re not yet a member, you can register for free at: https://glaucoma.uk/ukegs/

What type of video can be submitted ?

The video can be on any topic related to glaucoma and could include:

• A surgical video
• A video presenting a patient case

By submitting your video, you or an associate presenter agree to be available at the conference in person if the work is selected. 

• Videos must include a voice over or the presenter must speak over the video during the presentation.
• The video should be produced in one of these formats; mp4, MOV, WMV or WMA.
