DAY 3 - Tuesday, September 11
Welcome
Ophthalmology Times Europe welcomes ophthalmic professionals from around the world to Milan. On day three of the ESCRS we report about lectures on irrigating iris retractors, corneal incisions with femto and many more. Today's newsletter also includes reviews of a sample of products from the show floor. The 'Your Thoughts' section is what you said in response to our daily question.

ESCRS MILAN CITY GUIDE 2012
Best of the bars
Bobino Club, situated on Porta Genova Dock, is reminiscent of a hip New York-style lounge bar. With plenty of Chesterfield sofas to choose from, the bar oozes style and elegance. On the subject of classy, why not visit Sayonara on Via Ippolito Nievo? The 1930s style piano bar offers cocktails that are out of this world. Read our SeeingMilan travel guide here or pick one up at booth N310.
Riveting restaurants
For a glimpse of real, downtown Milan visit SPIB Pizza on Via Legnone. Despite the basic décor and not-so-glamorous neighbourhood, SPIB Pizza is home of the most authentic Italian pizza you could ever taste in Milan. Seven is a steakhouse on Viale Montenero and is a favourite for meat-lovers. Seven is perfect for larger groups and families with its reasonable prices and location.
