MANALAPAN, N.J.—Registration is now open for the Neuro-Optometric Rehabilitation Association (NORA) international online conference at the nora2020.com site. The conference will be available live online on Saturday, Sept. 12 and Sunday, Sept. 13. All presentations will be available on demand through Oct. 31, 2020, according to the group’s announcement. The NORA annual conference is a premier event for eyecare and other health care professionals who provide rehabilitative services to individuals who have suffered a traumatic brain injury.

The association noted that in light of current circumstances and its concern about the safety and well-being of attendees, it made the decision to cancel the planned 2020 conference in Columbus, Ohio, and in its place has scheduled this online conference.

“In line with our continued commitment toward advancing professional knowledge and understanding of neuro-optometric rehabilitative care and encouraging strong working relationships among professionals, the NORA 2020 online conference, “Eye, Brain & Body Integration in Neuro Care,” brings together key opinion leaders from optometry and other specialties,” NORA executive director Gary Esterow said.

This year’s program offers up to 17 COPE-approved CE credits with all new presentations, including the addition of a new course designed to provide allied therapy professionals with a foundational understanding of the role of neuro-optometric rehabilitation for vision disorders associated with concussion, stroke and other neurological disorder.

Also new this year, courses designed especially for staff members or optometrists who are looking to add a neuro-component to their office.

Active NORA professional and allied professional members receive discounted pricing and are eligible for early-bird discounts. Students currently enrolled in a certified college of optometry, allied health profession, education, and rehabilitation program or in an optometric residency or a fellowship program can attend the conference for free.
