NEW YORK—In order to give all opticians a voice in the goals, objectives and actions being implemented following last year’s Opticianry Summit, the Opticianry Summit Leadership Team has announced a mini summit webinar scheduled for May. During the webinar, a team comprised of opticians who have been leading the summit’s work over the last 12 months, will review the goals of the organization, report on the progress that has been made to date, share what’s planned for 2013, and provide an opportunity for attendees to ask questions.
