The UK’s leading optical exhibition since 1978, uniting manufacturers, laboratories, suppliers and distributors, eye care professionals and their representative and professional bodies and educators.
Organised by the FMO and MA Exhibitions, this year Optrafair celebrates its 40th anniversary.
Show features back by popular demand will be the CET Theatre, ABDO CET Theatre, Window Dressing, and after their successful inauguration at last year’s show, the Business Theatre and FMO Networking Bar.
Meanwhile, there are three new features for 2018 – the dedicated Contact Lens Hub, a fully choreographed Catwalk and the Independents’ Lounge.
FMO chairman Andy Yorke said: ‘For leading brands, and for newer companies aiming to get a foothold on the market, Optrafair is without doubt the leading exhibition for the UK optical industry.
‘It is trusted by everyone who works in the industry – eye care professionals, manufacturers, laboratories, suppliers and distributors, professional bodies and educators.
‘There’s always something new emerging out there and Optrafair is the best possible place to keep up to date with what’s trending in the world of frames, how lens technology is ever evolving and how science is allowing us to gain an even greater understanding of the human eye.’
