Take Part, Exchange Ideas, Debate Issues

SILMO ACADEMY has carved out a niche for itself as a forum for dialogue and information on the latest scientific developments in the vision and optics sectors, aimed at opticians and other vision specialists both in France and abroad. In line with tradition, this symposium will take place within the framework of SILMO Paris, World Optical Fair from October 6 to 9, 2017 at the Paris Nord Villepinte Exhibition Centre.

This is a unique opportunity to have your say, a platform to share directly your thoughts, analyses and scientific studies. The 2017 symposium is dedicated in all aspects to GLARE.

Moreover, since 2010, Silmo Academy has set itself the goal of supporting professionals working in ophthalmic optics in their quest for excellence by proposing workshops and a scientific symposium where they can enhance their knowledge and share ideas with experts from every field.

Since 2016, Silmo Academy has chosen to support a research project in the field of optics and vision science. It is offering a €10,000 grant for a project submitted by an individual researcher or research team, with the winning project selected by the scientific committee.
