An event on October 4 will feature a line-up of speakers who will discuss how they have moved towards sustainability in practices and manufacturing.
It was supported by the Association of Optometrists (AOP), the Association of British Dispensing Opticians (ABDO), the British Contact Lens Association (BCLA), the College of Optometrists, the General Optical Council (GOC) and the Optical Suppliers Association (OSA).
