AOV NRW Confirms November 2026 Conference; LIMV Announces Separate Nov 7–8 Event
Understand the event
The Augenoptiker- und Optometristenverband NRW (AOV NRW) has confirmed its 45th annual conference, titled "Blick.", for November 15, 2026, at the Westfalenhallen Congress Center in Dortmund. Initial reporting by eyebizz on October 12, 2026, and subsequent confirmation by FOCUS Augenoptik on October 13, 2026, align on these core logistical details. Neither source provides specific agenda items or speaker lists beyond the general title. In a separate development concerning regional optometry events, the State Guild of Opticians and Optometrists of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (LIMV) announced a continuing education conference scheduled for November 7–8, 2026, at Schloss Hotel Fleesensee in Göhren-Lebbin, as reported by DOZ Verlag on October 17, 2026. However, a later report from eyebizz on October 28, 2026, describes a similar LIMV event but explicitly dates it to November 2025, creating a conflict with the earlier 2026 date provided by DOZ Verlag. The available evidence does not resolve this discrepancy regarding the year of the LIMV conference, leaving uncertainty about whether the November 7–8 event is intended for 2025 or 2026.
