Earlier this year, ABDO College, in conjunction with Canterbury Christ Church University, broadcast its first webinar. The subject was ‘Public eye health’ and the session was led by Professor Darren Shickle. In his talk, Professor Shickle described the epidemiology of visual impairment and some developments in eye health services and policy. He also presented some of his research on why people do not attend for eye examinations. He proposed rethinking recommendations for frequency of eye exams and separation of exams from the dispensing of glasses and lenses. A recording of the webinar can be watched at www.abdocollege.org.uk.
