OEP 21 POINTS UNRAVELING / Nieuwegein-The Netherlands
Speakers: Michael Hoste, Fo, FBOAF, FCSO
The seminar is in German / with Dutch translation.
POSTPONED!!
Will be postponed to a later date.
On 18 and 19 May 2014, BOAF organizes in Nieuwegein-The Netherlands, an advanced OEP 21Ptn seminar for those interested in behavioral optometry.
A very exciting seminar which BOAF Past Vice President Michael Hoste, will unravel the OEP 21 points.
This seminar is in the German language with Dutch translation.
Seminar Quote:
The measurements at 21 points method is one of our most important sources of information in the visual analysis. It is complex to implement, but delivers an incredible amount of information. This information I would like to unravel with you. We will discuss in detail and implement each measurement. As well as the differences and liaise with the MKH method. However, it is much nicer to look at the general measurement as a painting to get an impression of the whole first and then enjoy ... the individual brushstrokes.
