    We’re looking forward to welcoming the ocular melanoma community to the 2026 Eyes on a Cure: Ocular Melanoma Patient & Caregiver Symposium, taking place April 17–19, 2026 in Miami, Florida in collaboration with Bascom Palmer Eye Institute and Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center.

    This annual meeting brings together patients, caregivers, advocates and leading experts for a meaningful weekend focused on education, connection and community. The program will include:

    ✨ Research and treatment updates from OM specialists
    ✨ Educational sessions and expert presentations
    ✨ Patient support resources
    ✨ Opportunities to connect with others who understand the OM journey

    This event will be in-person only, with recordings shared afterward for those unable to attend. A limited number of travel scholarships remain available for eligible participants. Please reach out to cureom@melanoma.org if interested.
