We are making learning from our events available to those who could not attend.
In January we held an eye health training day for GPs that was attended by over 50 GPs. The day covered common eye conditions, the patient perspective, ophthalmic emergencies, the new Accessible Information Standard and support for your patient. As part of this network offer, we want to make the learning from the event available to everyone who could not attend. Here you will find videos of the presentations.
