Our CPD education evenings are designed to support the healthcare professionals involved in a patient’s eye care.
Sessions are practical, interactive and case-based, providing opportunities to ask questions, discuss clinical challenges and gain a deeper understanding of ophthalmic conditions, investigations and treatment.
By bringing GPs, optometrists and ophthalmologists together, our education evenings help strengthen professional relationships and support clearer communication throughout the patient journey.
Our GP education evenings provide practical education on the ophthalmic conditions commonly encountered in general practice.
Sessions cover recognising important presentations and red flags, understanding investigations and available treatments, appreciating the relationship between ocular and systemic disease, and knowing when referral is required.
The sessions provide an opportunity to build practical ophthalmic knowledge, discuss relevant clinical presentations and strengthen communication between GPs and ophthalmologists.

Our purpose extends beyond explaining when a patient should be referred.
We want GPs and optometrists to understand the diagnoses we make, the significance of our findings, the treatments their patients receive and the reasoning behind our management decisions.
This understanding allows referring practitioners to:
When the professionals involved in a patient’s care understand one another, communication and continuity of care can be strengthened.
Our correspondence is deliberately educational.
Our letters explain the patient’s condition, relevant findings, treatment rationale and planned course of care, helping referring practitioners understand both what we have found and why a particular management approach has been recommended.
Our CPD education evenings build on this communication by providing the clinical knowledge needed to engage more effectively with that information and contribute as an informed member of the patient’s eye-care team.
Our twice-yearly CPD education evenings bring GPs, optometrists and ophthalmologists together to share knowledge, discuss clinical challenges and strengthen communication across the patient’s eye-care team.
Through continuing education and informative correspondence, we aim to support better communication, clinical decision-making, continuity of care and patient outcomes.
