Register for IP Peer Review: Inflammation & Infection for the IP Optometrist C-113303
This peer review for IP Optometrists will consider case scenarios presenting with different aspects of eye inflammation and infection. The cases could all present in clinical practice to independent prescribing optometrists and will enable optometrists from varying backgrounds to share their different thoughts and suggestions for the patient management in these cases. It will provide an opportunity to critically reflect on clinical decision-making, prescribing practice, and referral pathways in complex ocular disease.
Places are limited to 10 delegates, and you must be IP qualified to register.
