Preparations are well underway for the annual SOVS conference to be held on Sunday 29 July 2018. In addition to the two keynote speakers introduced in last month’s newsletter, there will be talks on functional MRI and retinoptic mapping and measuring acuity in children. Robert Ng will present his experience at SUNY and a representative from Coopervision will provide an update on the MiSight 1-day study. Workshops on Myopia Control, Ocular Imaging, Low Vision, Ortho-keratology, and Colour Vision will take place in the afternoon.
Registrations are open now online. Tickets are $120 full price, or $90 for honorary teaching fellows, our professional partners who host Optometry students for placements or externships.
