Great day so far. Now listening to a fascinating talk from Melanie Hingorani on the UK ophthalmology alliance.

A packed conference room; brilliant talks; a lovely lunch. On now to the afternoon sessions which should also be excellent (and a cure for the post-prandial snoozes 😜) #on19 The RCN

Great talk by Nicola Dunlop on Nurse-led lacrimal assessment, diagnosis and management. A fantastic example of utilising nursing expertise to optimise patient outcomes and satisfaction, as well as enhancing service delivery. #on19

A poignant and illuminating lecture from Judith Potts Esme's Umbrella on Charles Bonnet Syndrome. Her drive and work in raising the profile of this misunderstood condition is inspiring. #on19

Sunday morning stroll with my beautiful Labrador Bonnie and her cuddly friend Lily #dogsoftwitter

Entirely unrelated to all things ophthalmic, but pleased to announce that my beautiful girl has conquered her fear of steps!
