Book your seat for the Awards

Time is running out to book your seat at the optical night of the year, the Optician Awards.

The presentation event is open to everyone in optics and places for the night can still be booked at www.opticianawards.com or by calling 020 8652 8026.

This year's black-tie presentation extravaganza will take place at the Hilton Hotel, Park Lane London on Saturday April 14 and the Optician Award winners will be the very first recipients of the newly designed Art Deco trophy.

The evening will start with a drinks reception overlooking Hyde Park. Guests will then be treated to a top class dinner and AV show before being entertained by the celebrity host. The presentation of the Optician Awards will then be followed by dancing and a charity casino sponsored by GfK, where all of the proceeds will be donated to Vision Aid Overseas. Those holding the highest number of chips at the end of the night will win designer label prizes provided by Luxottica.
