Optician reveals new look for 2012 Awards

Next year's Optician Award winners will be the first to walk away with the newly commissioned, hand-made trophies designed to tie in with the event's stunning new look.

Art Deco glamour is the theme behind the new image for the Awards and marks 15 years of recognition and reward for optometrists, dispensing opticians and practices.

Since their inception as the Optician Eyecare Awards, a lunch-time event to recognise clinical excellence, the Awards presentation has been expanded to include all sections of the optical profession and industry and is now the landmark, celebratory black tie dinner in the eye care calendar.

Entries will soon be welcomed through www.opticianawards.com where full details of how to enter will be found. Over the coming weeks Optician will publish a profile of each award category to help readers decide which one is best suited to them and what their entry should include. Each profile will provide some pointers to what the judges will be looking for from entrants.
