  • Putting People First — patient-centred care and evolving professional roles
  • Healthy Ageing & Presbyopia — WHO initiatives, demographic change and visual needs
  • Gaining a Competitive Edge in Practice — clinical innovation and differentiation
  • Light Management & Myopia — the influence of light on refractive development
  • Future Advances in Optometry & Optics — artificial intelligence, smart eyewear and med-tech evolution

The congress will feature a range of international speakers, including World Council of Optometry President Dr. Cindy Tromans, European Council of Optometry and Optics President Gabrielle Janssen, Professor Rupert Bourne (UK), Professor David Elliott (UK), Professor Eric Papas (Australia) and Professor Weizhong Lan (China).
