WOPEC/LOCSU Training
We’d like to remind you that the LOC now has codes to access all of the training provided by LOCSU/WOPEC. This is free of charge and is available for the following areas: Cataract; Glaucoma; PEARS and Low Vision.

We would encourage you to make use of this training especially if you are hoping to be involved in enhanced services in the future.  To get your code and instructions, please email Michelle Martins on michelle@jclconsulting.co.uk stating which codes you would like.

Enhanced Service Schemes
We have been asked to remind all Contractors that if you are currently in the Cataract Direct Referral scheme or Glaucoma Referral Refinement Scheme, but no longer wish to participate, you must contact Optometric Advisor, Sue Leighter at s.leighter@nhs.net .
