German Ophthalmological Society

The Deutsche Ophthalmologische Gesellschaft (DOG) is a voluntary association in the field of ophthalmology. Its official website presents the DOG 2026 congress, scheduled for 24–27 September 2026 in Berlin, along with a podcast, the campaign "Für mehr Sehen. Entdecke das Potenzial klinischer Studien", the DOG onlive symposium series, DOG prizes and research funding, and a DOG innovation initiative. The organization also maintains a history page covering the history of German ophthalmology, Albrecht von Graefe, contemporary witness interviews, and museums and collections.

The DOG's official website includes a history section on the history of the DOG and German ophthalmology, referencing a 1957 DOG commemorative publication and figures such as Albert Esser (1885–1972), an ophthalmologist and medical historian from Düsseldorf, and Albrecht von Graefe. The page also lists presidents, general secretaries, treasurers, secretaries, and managing directors since the society's founding.
