Ahead of the launch, Optician hosted a round table event late last year to showcase the products to a selection of optical professionals and practitioners. Chairing the event was Optician clinical editor Bill Harvey. Panel members included optometrist and Adlens director of industry affairs Dr Graeme MacKenzie. MacKenzie qualified as an optometrist in South Africa where he lectured and read for a DPhil before moving to the University of Oxford as part of a research team developing variable focus lenses.
Also present were Aston University lecturer and academic support officer Dr Colin Fowler who once supervised a PhD in variable focus lenses, contact lens optician and former lens technician James Hall, dispensing optician Daniel Bleetman, and optometrist, former director of professional services at Boots and member of the GOC standards committee David Cartwright.
