NEW YORK—Eyecare professionals have begun nominating optical laboratories for the annual Website of the Year contest sponsored by LabTalk magazine. The nomination survey was sent out the week of July 8 to ECPs via VMail. A pop-up link to the survey will also be found on the Vision Monday website.

The deadline to enter is Aug. 30, 2013 with judging happening in September and the winning site and Top Ten sites announced at the annual Labapalooza party on Oct. 3, 2013 at Vision Expo West hosted by LabTalk, Vision Monday and the Vision Council Optical Lab Division/OLA. Labs can also nominate their websites by sending an email to LabTalk editor, Christie Walker at cwalker@jobson.com. Include the name of the lab, the website address and a contact person at the lab including phone and email. Sites are judged on value to the ECP, content, look and feel, and ease-of-use.
