Humber and North Yorkshire (HNY) Integrated Care System (ICS) is hosting a series of virtual, interactive Continuing Professional Development (CPD) sessions for the local optometry community.

The HNY ICB footprint covers 7 Ophthalmology Trust sites as well as multiple Independent Sector Providers. The Optometry profession are the primary care specialists that refer the majority of referrals either directly or indirectly (via GP) to these sites.
As part of the Eye Care Collaboration with Optometry and Ophthalmology we are delivering the sessions to:
- support and inform the local eyecare workforce
- foster relationships between local practitioners, Local Optical Committees and secondary care.
- provide better eyecare for all.
Each 1.5hr session will consist of a presentation delivered by a local specialist, followed by time for discussion. The sessions are CPD accredited.
