Alumni Meeting 2023
On the penultimate weekend of September, the annual alumni meeting of the Aalen Friends of Optometry e.V. took place in the auditorium and lecture hall building of Aalen University. Due to the storm disaster, where hail caused severe damage to the monastery grounds in Benediktbeuern, the event had to be moved to Aalen University at short notice this year. The continuing education weekend was packed with exciting lectures and discussions, some of which were presented by top-class experts in the field of optometry who had traveled from the USA especially for the event.
