Central Time) on Sunday, June 28. REGISTRATION FOR THIS WEBINAR IS NOW CLOSED.  To join the webinar, go to the webinar website: https://nationalglaucomasociety.webex.com; you will need the webinar password and meeting number sent by the NGS.

You will be able to see the PowerPoint presentation, hear the lecture and submit questions to the speaker. All you need is a computer, smart phone or tablet with an Internet connection. You can either use a telephone to hear the lecture (toll rates may apply) or use the speakers or a headset from your computer.

This is a COPE approved course (COPE # 67181-AS) and approved as a Live COPE Event (Event # 119597). It is approved as live CE by the Minnesota Board of Optometry, the New York State Board for Optometry, the Texas Board of Optometry, the Vermont Board of Optometry and the Virginia Board of Optometry. State statutes indicate that a COPE approved webinar is approved as on-line CE in CA, CT, GA, MA, MD, MI, NH, PA and WA. However, due to COVID-19, many states have suspended restrictions on distance-learning and are considering live webinars the same as live CE, including CA, MA, MD, NH, NJ, and PA. COPE has indicated that interactive webinars given by June 30 do not require a test. However, individual states may still require a test. Check the website of your State Board for the latest rulings. 

The Registration for this webinar is $65 for Full NGS Members and $80 for non-members. 

Attendance is limited to 180 optometrists. Registration will close at noon Eastern time on Sunday of the webinar, or when capacity is reached, whichever comes first. The meeting password, meeting number and link to the webinar website will be e-mailed.  

If you would like the NGS to submit your attendance data to ARBO's OE Tracker, please make sure your OE Tracker number is included in your profile on the NGS website when you register for this webinar. We also will mail CE certificates to attending doctors.
