We are proud to inform you that Kanti had his first foray into public speaking at the weekend, and not one to do it by halves, he jumped right in at the deep end addressing nearly one hundred delegates at the Association Of European Ocularists in The Hague, Netherlands. His topic was ‘Ocular Prosthetics With Vision.’  Using his own case study, he explained how he created a hyper-thin prosthetic shell to conceal unsightly pigmentations on the sclera caused by a condition called nevus of the ota, whilst enhancing the patient’s vision. He generated much interest amongst his peers, and delighted in answering any questions they had afterwards. It was a great opportunity for Kanti to experience the daunting task of public speaking, and observe others presentation methods and ocularist techniques. We also enjoyed celebrating over a glass of champagne, as Erica Groet received a knighthood from Dutch Royalty for her services in ocular prosthetics. We look forward to more events like this in the future!

The high fliers that we are, we then flew to Paris for the Silmo exhibition where we were introduced to the latest ranges in optical frames and sunglasses. We are due to meet with a few brand representatives over the coming weeks so watch this space…
