In ophthalmology, progress is all around us. Innovative technologies, advancing treatments and techniques, and novel insights and experiences continue to propel the field forward. The future remains an exciting prospect.

In October 2016, the third ME Live meeting was held in Miami, Florida. In many ways, this is an event that celebrates such progress—the steps we have taken personally, the advances we have enjoyed collectively, the lessons we continue to learn and share, and the fact that a whole new crop of bright minds is coming up behind us.

For 3 days, insights poured in to ME Live, from the stage, the audience, Skype, and, of course, Twitter, with the official meeting hashtag generating more than 1.5 million impressions. Clearly, we are all feeling the excitement about what’s new and what’s coming.

This issue features a spotlight on ME Live, with highlights from the weekend’s top talks and happenings. Here’s to appreciating where we have come from, celebrating where we are today, and thinking forward to where we have yet to go.

See y’all in Nashville!
