The BCLA held its biennial International Clinical Conference in Manchester, UK, between 9 and 11 June. Current topics such as eye disease, myopia control, orthokeratology, scleral contact lenses, contact lens materials were included, plus many other topics that would help delegates deliver improved contact lens care.
