1st Annual "Eye Am Not Alone" Conference:
Educating, Supporting and Building Hope for the Ocular Melanoma Community
October 23-24, 2010
With generous support from the
Dana Farber Cancer Institute, the Ocular Melanoma Foundation is holding its first conference for patients, caregivers and loved ones on October 23-24, 2010 in
Boston, MA. The conference will provide attendees the opportunity to learn about the latest research on treatments and procedures. There will be presentations by physician leaders in the field who come from a range of backgrounds and institutions as well as opportunities to meet other patients and caregivers in small group sessions. Time will also be set aside for fun and entertainment.
The goal of this annual meeting is to help build community, provide up-to-date information, and support for patients and caregivers. Our hope is for participants to return home armed with new medical information and new energy to better cope with ocular melanoma.
All conference events will take place at the Dana Farber Cancer Institute (44 Binney Street, Boston, MA).

There is a another large event in Boston this same weekend so we anticipate that all hotels in the city will fill up quickly.
We urge you to book your hotel room (which is separate from the conference registration) ASAP if you think there is a chance you will be able to come for the conference. Hotel reservations can be cancelled up until 6pm the day of arrival.
Important Hotel Information:
- We are holding a block of rooms at the Courtyard Marriott in Coolidge Corner, Brookline (40 Webster Street, Brookline – about 1.3 miles from Dana Farber Cancer Institute). The special OMF group rate is $199 per night plus tax for a double room.
- The reserved room block will be allocated on a first-come, first-served basis (if you have problems reserving a room with our group rate, please contact Becky at becky@ocumel.org and we will try to add more rooms to the block if they are available). There is a large event in Boston this same weekend so we anticipate that all hotels in the city will fill up quickly. We urge you to book your hotel room ASAP if you think there is a chance you will be able to come for the patient and caregiver conference. Hotel reservations can be cancelled up until 6pm the day of arrival. The special group rate will expire when all allotted rooms have been reserved, the hotel fills up, or on September 21, whichever comes first. If rooms are still available after September 21, we do not know what rate the hotel will offer.
- To reserve your room: call the Marriott toll free at 1-866-296-2296 and reference the “Ocular Melanoma Foundation” group block or visit www.marriott.com/bosbl, enter your dates of stay. Hit the “Special Rates and Awards” button and enter the code: OMFOMFA (for King Bedded Rooms) or OMFOMFB (for Double Queen Bedded Rooms) when prompted.
- The Courtyard Marriott has a free shuttle to and from Dana Farber Cancer Institute should you need to get back to the hotel during the day. The OMF will also have a shuttle at the start and finish of the Patient Meeting to get you to and from the meeting and hotel. A car will not be needed during the conference.
- If the Courtyard Marriott sells out of rooms, please contact us at becky@ocumel.org and we will do our best to help you find alternate accommodations. Please note that the OMF will not be able to provide transportation to the conference events at Dana Farber Cancer Institute from any other hotel besides the Courtyard Marriott in Brookline.
