About Bradford LOC The Local Optical Committee
Bradford Local Optical Commitee (LOC) represents the interests of Optometrists, Dispensing Opticians and Contractors of Ophthalmic services in the Bradford and Airedale area. Our aim is to raise the profile of Optometry and its associated professions with GP’s, Ophthalmologists and Airedale General Hospital and Bradford teaching Hospitals. It also tries to maintain links with Neighbouring LOC’s and other local professional commitees such as LMC (medical). LDC (dental) and LPC (pharmacy).
We hope to have most information you may need when working, easily available from this web site. Please contact us if you want further information or would like a link adding to a site you feel will be of benefit to the local Optometry community.
We welcome input and hope to develop this site into your primary reference source.
Bradford LOC represents all Optometrists and Dispensing Opticians working in the Bradford, Airedale, Craven and Wharfedale Clinical Commissioning Groups.
We meet about 6 times per year – usually at the University of Bradford Eye Clinic. The LOC contains members from independent optometry, the multiple, franchise and joint-venture sectors, the Hospital Eye Service, the optometry course at Bradford University and the dispensing profession. Our local Optometric Advisor also regularly attends LOC meetings.
We give a warm welcome to any local colleagues who want to join us – as you know there is much happening in Optometry, and we want one of our strengths to be that our LOC reflects all sections of our profession.
