- To provide a platform for discussion of ophthalmic professional examinations, in particular, the EBO exam
- Support for collaborative training across Europe, in the form of fellowship reports
- To increase awareness regarding future challenges posed by the unification of Europe, and to provide a platform for discussion
- To promote SOE and encourage participation from the younger generations
- To provide a platform for discussion and a voice for young ophthalmologists on matters that can have an impact on their future careers e.g. new technologies, techniques or European policies.
