Public Seminars
Public seminars are scheduled regionally around NZ when funding permits and when a local ophthalmologist and/or optometrist is available to make a presentation. We aim to hold 8 to 10 seminars per year when circumstances allow.
Planned Seminars 2026
Christchurch
We had an incredible response to the seminar on Saturday, 9 May 2026, and many people missed out because the venue reached capacity.
To make sure everyone gets the chance to attend, we’re planning another seminar in Christchurch soon.
