Joseph Anthony Tumbocon and Hannah Pia De Guzman represented the PGS in the global assembly of glaucoma societies and general assembly of the World Glaucoma Association (WGA). There was a move to increase the participation of the national glaucoma societies in WGA activities\, identify areas in the world where there is lack of glaucoma specialists and to continue with worldwide awareness campaigns in glaucoma. The assembly approved the increase in the number of board of governors to involve more countries in the WGA governing body. Dr. Mario V. Aquino\, the founding president of the PGS\, remains as part of WGA advisory board. \nRepresentatives of the Philippine Glaucoma Society in the Global Assembly of Glaucoma Societies of the World Glaucoma Association on June 6\, 2015 in Hongkong (standing left to right: Joseph Anthony Tumbocon – President of the PGS; Norman Aquino – Head of external affairs and past president of the PGS\, and board member of the Asia-­‐Pacific Glaucoma Society; Sitting: Hannah Pia De Guzman – Secretary of the PGS) \nIncoming president of the World Glaucoma Association\, Aung Tin (left)\, sharing a light moment with the Philippine Glaucoma Society president\, Joseph Anthony Tumbocon (right)\, during the World Glaucoma Association global assembly.\nIn addition\, the Philippines was acknowledged by the WGA board of governors to have one of the most number of World Glaucoma Week activities in 2015 during the WGA general assembly and during the WGC opening ceremonies. \n
