LAS VEGAS—With Expo still fresh on everyone’s minds, Vision Monday presents a slideshow to recap the sights and excitement that helped make up Vision Expo West. See who was at the industry parties held on the show floor and around Vegas last week. Highlights include a look at how the optical community honored Top Labs at Labapalooza and individuals who have made lasting contributions to the industry, as well as celebrations of company anniversaries and product launches.

Vision Expo West proved to be a busy show—preliminary attendance reports indicate the event attracted over 12,500 attendees, following 2013's record-breaking 25th anniversary year, according to show organizers. More than 450 brands were showcased in an exhibit hall spanning the length of three football fields, and attendees were introduced to more than 400 hours of new and popular Continuing Education developed by a conference advisory board representing the breadth of the field, show organizers said.
