2024 Contact Lens Open House

On November 30, 2024, Optocentro hosted the Contactology Open Day, an event that brought together leading experts for a day dedicated to sharing knowledge and discussing key topics in the field of contactology.

The event featured presentations by Dr. Henrique Nascimento, who addressed the topic “Dry Eye,” and by Gonçalo Marques, who explored “The Ocular Surface: From Clinical Practice to Comfort with Contact Lenses.” Ricardo Baptista highlighted “Scleral Contact Lenses – Possible Contraindications,” while Leandro Pereira presented “The Pentacam Family in the Modern Contact Lens Practice.”

Other equally relevant topics were addressed by Clara Pérez, who spoke on “Myopia Control”; by Rafael Clérigo, who discussed “Orthokeratology for Presbyopia”; and by Carlos Tavares, who led a hands-on session on “Scleral Lenses: Clinical Cases.”

The event featured lectures, workshops, discussions of clinical cases, and Q&A sessions, fostering a genuine exchange of experiences among the attendees.

In addition to its commitment to training and innovation, the Open Day underscored Optocentro’s social responsibility by donating a portion of the registration fees to the KASTELO Association—Pediatric Long-Term and Palliative Care Unit.

We would like to thank everyone who helped make this day a success.
