Eyes On Eyecare launches first in-person event With INSIGHT

ECPs can earn 12 CE credits April 19-20 in Las Vegas.

San Diego, California – March 11, 2024 – Eyes On Eyecare announced it will be hosting INSIGHT, its first in-person event for eyecare professionals (ECPs) from April 19-20, 2024 in Las Vegas, Nevada at the Oquendo Campus—a 70,000 square foot facility designed specifically for medical education. The location was chosen for its state-of-the-art bioskills lab as well as its proximity to the airport and Las Vegas Strip.

Widely regarded for delivering premier continuing education on a virtual platform for today’s optometrists and ophthalmologists, Eyes On Eyecare is kicking off its comprehensive in-person experience to accommodate ECPs who prefer in-person learning and networking or who wish to fulfill their educational requirements through a mix of virtual and hands-on modalities.

“Eyes On Eyecare’s mission has always been to deliver knowledge and foster the learning styles of all eyecare professionals,” said Matt Geller, OD, CEO, and co-founder, Eyes On Eyecare. “Virtual education is here to stay, but we are thrilled to augment our offerings with INSIGHT—an affordable opportunity for hands-on education, face-to-face networking, and the connection that comes from sharing a career-defining experience with fellow colleagues.”

Why should ECPs attend?

The inaugural agenda will unlock up to 12 in-person COPE-accredited continuing education (CE) units over the course of 15 hours of exclusive programming, including:

  • Keys to building a powerhouse practice

  • How to detect AMD, GA, and DR even earlier
  • Next-gen contact lens technologies
  • Mastering a collaborative-care approach to MIGS

  • Simplified strategies to enhance NK diagnosis and management
  • Co-management pearls essential for patient-centric care
  • New innovations in ocular aesthetics
  • Overcoming digital impacts on patient ocular comfort and vision
  • Navigating medical malpractice challenges
  • And more!

In addition to best-in-class education, attendees will also have access to a technology-rich exhibit hall, networking receptions, hands-on dry labs and demonstrations, free breakfasts, and lunches every day, a Johnson & Johnson MedTech-sponsored reception Friday evening, and opportunities to develop deeper connections with peers who may become trusted collaborators and sounding boards as today’s ECPs continue to grow their practice and patient-care protocols.
