I was really sad to see that the Vision Arena meeting due to take place at Oran Mor in Scotland has been cancelled. I attended the first VA event in London a couple of weeks ago ( see previous post) and it was a useful and rewarding day out, look out for a conference report in Optician soon.
Optics enjoys a lot of seminars, conferences and meetings but they all take a lot of effort and money to set up. The phrase use it or lose it springs to mind.
