We were delighted to have our President Leon Davies FCOptom speak at the Royal College of Ophthalmologists Annual Congress. An insightful talk on the evolving roles of optometrists, collaborative efforts with ophthalmologists and the importance of multidisciplinary eye care teams. #AdvancingOptometry

Last week I led a debate on the need for an Eye Health Strategy for England, discussing issues ranging from NHS workforce to better joining up primary and secondary care. Thank you to all colleagues for contributions and commitment to improve eye health care outcomes.

Last month saw LOCSU hold Regional Optical Conferences across the UK. This gave us an opportunity to speak to our neighbouring LOCs to connect and share ideas across the region.
