Wish you all a Happy and a Prosperous 2022!

​

Welcome to the 4th edition of Optometry 360. 2021 has been quite a productive year despite being tough and eventful. Team ALO announced its new general body and executive team members and the new team has brought in their fresh perspectives in 2021. Optometry 360 and ALO Chronicles are the most distinguished among the other initiatives. I take this opportunity to laud the efforts of Team ALO in crafting and bringing to you a wholesome edition of this magazine and other initiatives and also express my gratitude to those who made valuable contributions.

​

We are also ecstatic to announce Converge, 2022. Converge is a scientific conference organized by Team ALO for optometry students, practitioners and professionals from all optometry organizations across India. We are excited that it is going to be in-person at Hyderabad. It’s time to Connect, Capture and Celebrate. Hope you all blocked your calendars for this weekend to begin your new year connecting and celebrating with friends and peers.

​

In this edition of Optometry 360, we bring to you varied optometry and eye care related content contributed by optometrists, both in house and from other optometry institutes.
