Another OSCE Success for Hampshire LOC!

On 1 February 10 candidates successfully completed their WOPEC Glaucoma OSCE and 9 candidates completed their MECS OSCE.

As ever we are grateful to Sasha Macken (WOPEC) and the local team of assessors for getting our local optometrists through these OSCEs.

We are also very grateful to Colin Jenkins at Specsavers Commercial Road, who kindly provided us with the premises for the evening to hold the event. We are looking forward to seeing Colin’s new practice in the future and  will no doubt be enjoying his support again.
