Haag-Streit Academy announce new dates for Slit Lamp Courses 2023

The ‘Slit Lamp Basic Skills’ course will feature advice from product experts on how to get the most from your Haag-Streit slit lamp. The course programme includes lectures on topics such as; ‘History & introduction to the slit lamp’, ‘The general eye examination’ and ‘Tonometry principles & calibration check’.

The ‘Advanced Slit Lamp Course’ will provide attendees with a detailed overview of more in-depth slit lamp techniques, including ophthalmic imaging. The agenda will cover a range of topics, including an introduction to a variety of pathologies and the Eyesi Slit Lamp virtual reality simulator.

Both courses will include practical, hands-on workshops with live subjects, covering topics including ‘Diffuse, focal & indirect illumination & retro illumination’ on the ‘Slit Lamp Basics Skills’ course and ‘Image capture & manipulation’ on the ‘Advanced slit lamp course’. Delegates will be able to claim 6.5 CPD points for their attendance on each day.

Doreen Agyeman, HS-UK Clinical Education and Training Manager, said, “I am very pleased to announce the launch of the forthcoming slit lamp courses in Manchester. Manchester is a great central location, and we are hoping to cater to healthcare professionals across the country. Following delegate feedback, the ‘Advanced Slit Lamp Course’ will also focus on examining different pathologies and will include use of the Eyesi Slit Lamp Simulator.  Both basic and advanced courses will feature ample time for hands-on workshops for both beginners and experienced users of the slit lamp.”

The cost of each course is just £125 + VAT and lunch is included in the price.  For further information, please email academy@haag-streit-uk.com.
