Our latest update...
Not long now till Silmo 2011 is upon us and for the last 3 years PHN has reported significant interest in UK companies who take the time and effort to exhibit their wares to an International as well as Gallic audience. We noted last year how more ambitious exhibition goers were in trying out new and avante garde products at Silmo. We look forward to receiving those exhibitors briefing notes for this year and will highlight them on a special Silmo page. A trip to Paris might well reignite your enthusiasm for “all things stock” as our Director (Bob Hutchinson) encouraged others who joined him in another practice building Webinar Presentation sponsored by Ocuco last week.
We report on the tussle that has been occurring between a number of PCTs and Domiciliary providers and the success of an advance effort by the AOP regarding VFS equipment. Plus we fortuitously highlight a new system for VFS, especially for those with Alzheimer’s.City University announces new optometric one day courses linked to Essex Primary Care.GOC Director steps down to become CE and Registrar of GCC.

We welcome more supporting newcomers this month in the form of Shamir who have taken pages on the public and the professional site to educate the public on eyecare in the workplace and in action with information on progressives, free form and special coatings for each application. Their support is much appreciated and the information will be of value to the 40,000 or so visits we receive between each site every month. Norville Opticians have also provided us information for their featured pages in www.mylocaloptician.co.uk providing a listing of specialties and products that each of their branches can provide.
