Presidents and chairmen of the optical bodies hosted a day of presentations, an open forum and a gala dinner this week to mark the annual general meetings of three Optical Confederation (OC) members.
Optical group members met at the Pullman Hotel, Euston, London to a welcome by OC chairman Don Grocott before a remembrance of deceased members conducted by acting chief executive of the AOP Richard Carswell.
A presentation on National Eye Health Week was followed by the highlight of the day, an OC Brains Trust. The executive officers of the five optical bodies in the OC, the Association of British Dispensing Opticians, the Association of Contact Lens Manufacturers, the Association of Optometrists, the Federation of Manufacturing Opticians and the Federation of Dispensing and Ophthalmic Opticians (FODO), styled themselves as the Brains Trust panel to take questions and discuss issues of the day. A full report on the discussion will be published in next week's Optician.
