Αγαπητοί συνάδελφοι,
Σας καλωσορίζω στο 11ο Παγκύπριο Επιμορφωτικό Συνέδριο του Συνδέσμου
Οπτικών Κύπρου, ένα συνέδριο που έχει θεσμοθετηθεί και τελεί υπό την αιγίδα
του Συμβουλίου Οπτικών Κύπρου.
Το ΔΣ του Συνδέσμου Οπτικών Κύπρου, στα πλαίσια των προσπαθειών του για
συνεχή επιμόρφωση, έχει θέσει ως στόχο την πλήρη επιμόρφωση των μελών του
σε ψηλό επίπεδο ώστε αδιαμφισβήτητα και δικαιωματικά, ο οπτικός-οπτομέτρης
της Κύπρου να θεωρείται εξεταστής πρώτου βαθμού.
Στην Ευρωπαϊκή οικογένεια του σήμερα ο οπτικός-οπτομέτρης δεν ασχολείται
μόνο με την κατασκευή και την προμήθεια γυαλιών οράσεως, αλλά εκπαιδεύεται
στην οπτομετρία, στην ανατομία και φυσιολογία του ματιού, στη γενική παθολογία,
τους φακούς επαφής κ.ά.
Είναι λοιπόν επόμενο με βάση τα πιο πάνω και με τις επιστημονικές γνώσεις
που διαθέτει, να είναι σε θέση να διακρίνει πρώτος καταστάσεις ή ενδείξεις που
μπορούν να γίνουν επικίνδυνες για την όραση και την υγεία του πελάτη του, να
τον πληροφορήσει σωστά και να τον παραπέμψει στον ειδικό.
Γίνεται αντιληπτό πως ο κοινωνικός ρόλος του οπτικού-οπτομέτρη αναβαθμίζεται
ιδιαίτερα και δίκαια χαρακτηρίζεται εξεταστής πρώτου βαθμού.
Με τα πιο πάνω στο μυαλό και με την ελπίδα πως οι ομιλητές μας θα εμπλουτίσουν
και ανανεώσουν τις γνώσεις μας, σας εύχομαι καλή επιμόρφωση.
ΜΑΚΗΣ ΕΛΕΥΘΕΡΙΟΥ, Πρόεδρος Συνδέσμου Οπτικών Κύπρου
Dear Guests and Colleagues,
On behalf of the board and the members of the Cyprus Optical Association, I
am honored to welcome you to our 11th educational congress.
The board of our Association is committed to offer continuously education and
training for its members. For this reason it prepares and organizes various
activities in the field of optometry and optics, contact lenses and eye care
management.
Primary eye care is within the scope of practice of the optician in Cyprus. It is
officially approved by the Cyprus Optical Council which is the regulatory body
of our profession. The role of the Cypriot optician in primary eye care is not
only the supply and fitting of optical appliances but the practice of optometry
as the main and essential provision of primary eye care.
The presence of our distinguished guest speakers promises a very successful
and sharing event. It is my pleasure to welcome them all in Limassol.
Looking forward to another fruitful meeting, once again I extend to everyone
a warm welcome.
MAKIS ELEFTHERIOU, President of the Cyprus Optical Association
