We present a theoretical study of the γγ→πη process from the threshold up to 1.4 GeV in the πη invariant mass. For the s-wave a0(980) resonance state we adopt a dispersive formalism using a coupled-channel Omn\`es representation, while the d-wave a2(1320) state is described as a Breit-Wigner resonance. An analytic continuation to the a0(980) pole position allows us to extract its two-photon decay width as Γa0→γγ=0.27(4) keV.
