College plans Brighton event

Next year's Optometry Tomorrow, the annual conference organised by the College of Optometrists, will be held at the Hilton Brighton Metropole on Sunday 8 and Monday 9 March 2009.

Following on from the success of this year's event in London, the College said it had developed a comprehensive programme, featuring a diverse range of thought-provoking lectures, and hands-on clinical workshop. Delegates will also have an opportunity to learning from leading experts who will share their knowledge and skills, discussing the key topics affecting everyday practice.

Commenting on the launch of the conference, College president, Dr Rob Hogan, said: 'We've used delegate feedback to develop a wide-ranging two-day lecture and workshop programme, offering something for everyone. The broad range of subjects and high calibre speakers will appeal to the profession.'
