Individuals who wish to become Active members of the PAAO must members in good standing with the National Ophthalmological Society Affiliated with the PAAO. There are 21 National Ophthalmological Societies affilated with the Pan-American Association of Ophthalmology (PAAO). The PAAO lists meeting information for its affilated societies on our events page.

Benefits of National Society affiliation include:

  • Visiting Professors - The PAAO will pay for tourist/coach-class air fare of two (2) Visiting Professors to national ophthalmology congresses. The local congress, regional course or basic sciences course is responsible to pay for local housing expenses. Click here for the Visiting Professor Program guidelines.
  • PAAO Leadership Course / Curso de Liderazgo - The purpose of the PAAO Leadership Course (Curso de Liderazgo) is to provide both orientation and skill development to future leaders
    of national ophthalmology societies affiliated with the PAAO. Only affiliated National Societies can nominate candidates. Only one candidate per society per year; Candidates may not self-nominate. Consistent with the recent emphasis on mutual commitments between the PAAO and the National Ophthalmological Societies and for this program in particular, we are requiring a financial commitment on the part of both organizations and the participant. We feel that to optimize the success of this program, a 'buy-in' on the part of all involved will be crucial for this program.
