Attendees will be able to claim CPD points for both days of the event (applied for).
Speakers for the event are confirmed as; Dr Jonathan Ross, Consultant Ophthalmic Surgeon, Borders General Hospital and Dr Sathish Srinivasan, Consultant Ophthalmologist, University Hospital Ayr and Mr Shahriar Nabili, Consultant Ophthalmologist, Hairmyres Hospital, Lanarkshire. All are widely-recognised as experts in the biometry field.
Sam Laidlaw, HS-UK Product Manager for biometry said, “The course will be a great opportunity for delegates to gain hands-on experience in the workshops, as well as learn from experts in the field. We only have limited spaces on the course, so we suggest that anyone interested should book early to avoid disappointment.”
