Webinar 1: OCT for everyone
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has transformed the way we detect, monitor, and explain eye disease, but its success depends on more than the optometrist alone. This webinar explores how every member of the practice team can contribute to delivering a confident and seamless OCT service. From capturing high-quality images and communicating the value of OCT to patients, to supporting clinical decision-making and practice efficiency, discover how teamwork can enhance patient care, improve confidence, and unlock the full potential of OCT within your practice.
Learning outcomes
- Practitioners will recognise effective communication strategies to explain the purpose, benefits, and outcomes of OCT to patients, supporting informed decision-making and patient-centred care
- Practitioners will evaluate the roles and responsibilities of the practice team in delivering an effective OCT service, applying collaborative approaches to enhance patient care and clinical outcomes.
