On 5th June 2019 at Milton Keynes Hospital we held a contact lens peer discussion: 'Improving CL wearer compliance'. This session fulfilled the peer review requirement for optometrists and contact lens opticians. BCLA president Jonathon Bench presented a very lively and stimulating event, which was approved for 3 interactive CET points each for optometrists (contact lenses, communication), dispensing opticians (contact lenses, communication) and contact lens opticians (contact lenses, communication). 

On 16th July at Stoke Mandeville Hospital we hope to run a peer discussion on retinal cases. More information to follow.
