BCLA Dry Eye Management Certificate

The Dry Eye Management certificate focuses on clinical skills for Ocular Surface Health and Dry Eye, allowing BCLA Members to gain CPD points while working towards a certificate. Over time this certification could lead to a BCLA Fellowship in dry eye.

The certificate can be achieved by any optometrist or contact lens optician who is a full member of the BCLA. The course is free for full members to complete, including access to all course materials and additional resources. 

If you are not a full member of the BCLA and would like to complete this course, you can join the BCLA online. Alternatively, you can join or upgrade your existing membership subscription by contacting [email protected]
