Speaker Meeting

Autumn Speaker Meeting
Saturday 25th October at 11am

Our autumn speaker meeting will be held at the Moorfields Education Hub 1st Floor 15 Ebenezer Street, N1 7NG (the hub is opposite the main hospital).  Cross City Road and go up Provost Street to the next corner and the Hub is facing you on the left. Doors open at 10:30, and there will be coffee and biscuits before the meeting starts.

Our Guest Speaker will be Dr Waheeda Illahi and her talk is titled:
Keratoconus and other health conditions – any cause for concern?

She will be reporting on a highly important survey carried out by the BMEC optometry team with keratoconus patients. We hope the results of this research will lead to significant improvements in KC hospital care

Dr Weheeda was an outstanding speaker at our 2018 conference in Birmingham. The video of her talk is well worth watching and the points raised were put into our information sheet 4, titled: Getting the most out of a contact lens appointment

We provide a complimentary sandwich lunch which is always a good opportunity to meet other members and share stories. If you are coming please let us know by emailing anne@kcgroup.org.uk or ‘phoning her on 020-8993 4759 so we can cater for numbers.

Please join us to discuss all things KC. We are totally open with no pre planned agenda. Ours is a truly bottom up organisation run by members, all of whom have KC or a close connection. There are no silly questions. If you are thinking it, then there is sure to be someone else with a similar idea.

We hope to see you then.
