Thank you to everyone who came to the 2025 Heed Luncheon in Orlando, Florida. It was great to reconnect and celebrate!


The Heed Luncheon is held each year during the American Academy of Ophthalmology Annual Meeting. All former Heed Fellows are invited to attend.

The event includes a brief reception followed by a sit-down, plated luncheon. The program includes updates on the Heed Foundation and the Society of Heed Fellows activities, and the presentation of the current year's Heed-Gutman Award.

Stay tuned for the 2026 Heed Luncheon details. Please note that advance registration is for attendees, and will open in Summer 2026.
