Looking back at
EYECARE 2016
Visitors
This year’s Eyecare
conference and
exhibition was a roaring
success thanks to high
attendance levels and
a positively received
agenda. Held at the
Hilton Hotel in Glasgow
on 17th and 18th January,
the event saw strong
attendance from more
than 300 visitors
and nearly 200 exhibitors
on 62 different stands.
The Eyecare conference and exhibition
boasted a packed schedule of clinical
lectures and workshops, as well as the
largest gathering of suppliers to the
optical industry outside London and
Birmingham. With 27 interactive CET
points available, across 58 lectures and
workshops, it was certainly a busy couple
of days for delegates who came from
across the UK.
Based on feedback we tried out a new
format this year - with more workshops
and an extended 2-hour lunch, which
proved a huge success. The feedback
from delegates on Eyecare 2016 was
overwhelmingly positive with 98% of
delegates rating the event overall as
excellent or good.
And our skills workshops, discussion
workshops and seminars covered an
equally diverse range of subjects,
including glaucoma assessment and
managing blepharitis.
You can now watch some of the filmed
Eyecare 2016 lectures at cetpoints.com
and answer the multiple choice
questions to get CET points.
Networking and exhibitors
The exhibition space proved a great
place for comparing products and
making new contacts for delegates.
The latest tools and equipment were
on show, and it was an excellent
opportunity for attendees to find out
about new products coming to market.
Amongst other exhibitors, we were
joined by Johnson & Johnson, Xeyex,
Topcon, Birmingham Optical and Scope
Opthalmics.
In the evening, delegates had the
chance to let their hair down and mingle
in the Riverside Suite of the Hilton,
whilst enjoying music and an optical
themed quiz.
