Scottish Optical Conference: Optics in the dear green place

Held at the Radisson Blu Hotel in Glasgow on November 16, the Scottish Optical Conference (SOC) was attended by more than 330 delegates attracted by the 60 companies exhibiting and three CPD tracks.  

Track 1 was focused on providing attendees with a contact lens and ocular surface update. Track 2 was on optometry and track 3 was business-focused, which aimed to build skills for the future. 

This allowed all the target groups to be accommodated with track 1 suitable for optometrists (OOs), dispensing opticians (DOs) and contact lens opticians (CLOs), track 2 for OOs and independent prescribers (IPs), and track 3 for DOs and OOs. Each track had different lunch and break times to avoid congestion at the hotel.
