Clinical conference sessions
Practical days at the NRC Birmingham, 12 and 13 October
The ABDO 2025 clinical conference will enable ABDO members and GOC registered non-members to take part in four practical workshops, each accredited for 3 interactive CPD points.
There will be 4 workshops across the day which all delegates will attend.
Dry eye on the front line – In this workshop you will encounter patients presenting with potential dry eye concerns. You will work in teams with your peers to analyse the provided information, pose questions to the patients and formulate appropriate next steps whilst considering the multi-disciplinary eyecare team in your practice.
Supporting a dry eye clinic – This practical session introduces key skills for understanding, using, and teaching the application of ocular lubricants and adjunct therapies as part of dry eye clinic. The session is divided into interactive stations to help build both clinical confidence and patient education strategies.
Dry Eye Puzzle: Diagnostic Strategies from TFOS DEWS III – This discussion workshop explores the individual roles and scope of practice eyecare practitioners play in the identification and management of dry eye disease (DED) and investigates the use of dry eye symptom questionnaires in practice.
Escape the circle of dry eye disease – Often described as a vicious circle, dry eye disease can seriously impact the lives of our patients. In this interactive educational escape room set in the conference exhibition, you will work in a team of your peers to better understand how patients can be supported with diagnosis and management of dry eye and escape the dry eye circle with them.
