Scottish contact lens society evolves into SCLOSS

In 1992, Optician reported on the 30th anniversary conference of the Scottish Contact Lens Society which by then had established itself as, not only the oldest such educational body, but one with a reputation for combining cutting-edge education with a social agenda second to none.

Many attendees to SCLS conferences such as this, which was held at St Andrews Old Course Hotel and typically included a significant element of golf play, often cite them as models of events that were both informative but highly enjoyable as social events too. Some readers may recall the time the event was held in Edinburgh and included a notorious foray onto the Royal Yacht Britannia.
