“The Clinical Conference offers up-to-date clinical content that is essential for providing the best possible care to our patients. And the Trade Fair provides a unique opportunity to see the latest equipment and treatments all in one place, saving you time and money. This is an opportunity to connect with your peers and stay up to date with the latest developments in eye care and this is the premier event for the global eye care community and not to be missed. ”
Belinda Musitano | Eyes@Optometry
“As a practice owner I invest in my staff (and myself) attending events such as OMEGA for a number of reasons. It boosts motivation and enthusiasm in their job, bringing them home full of new ideas that can be implemented in store. It also breaks the everyday routine of ‘this is how we do it’ and challenges us to change our thoughts and patterns around how we practice, how to be more innovative and offer a point of difference. Events such as OMEGA also give us the exposure to new equipment, brands and meeting new people. I personally always come back with a notebook of many areas I would like to introduce to make our patient’s experience in my practices the best they can be.”
