Leading optical bodies have announced plans to host a wide range of the standalone CET events under one roof in 2020.
It follows a stakeholder discussion on the future of optical exhibitions in the UK initiated by the Optical Confederation and featuring Optrafair organiser the FMO.
They proposed the ‘20/20 event’ would be held at the NEC in Birmingham, creating the largest ophthalmic educational event ever to be held in the UK and incorporated into Optrafair 2020.
FMO Chairman Mark Truss said: ‘This represents the culmination of far-reaching discussions with all parts of the optical sector, to celebrate the significance of the 20/20 notation. The FMO understands the need for a range of CET events for optometrists and dispensing opticians, but we, like the other members of the Optical Confederation, are committed to using the start of the new decade in 20/20 to deliver this exciting event.’
