EAGLE Alliance

About this Initiative

The Encourage Advocacy for Glaucoma Education (EAGLE) Alliance is an educational initiative developed by leading glaucoma experts across Asia in collaboration with Santen Asia. The initiative aims to distill the detailed guidance from the 4th edition of the Asia-Pacific Glaucoma Guidelines (APGG) into concise, practice-ready learning resources that support ophthalmologists and help elevate the standard of glaucoma care across Asia.

The program is independently developed by the EAGLE Faculty, with medical writing support from Santen, and is endorsed by the Asia-Pacific Glaucoma Society (APGS).
