Optical Laboratories Association 2007 Meeting Races Toward Success

OLA General Session Panel to ‘Demystify’ Digital Surfacing

NEW YORK--For seven years, the annual Optical Laboratory Web Site of the Year was selected by a panel of industry journalists. This year, eyecare professionals-the target audience of lab Web sites-are selecting the 8th annual Optical Web Site of the Year Award.

“We’ve always allotted points to Web sites for their usefulness to the ECP. So now instead of us guessing what’s useful and what’s not, we’ve gone straight to the source and asked eyecare professionals to nominate optical laboratory Web sites that best met their needs. We weren’t prepared for the overwhelming response,” said LabTalk editor and creator of the award, Christie Walker.

Over 300 individual nominations were received via Vision Monday’s Web site. The top 10 nominated lab sites will go onto round two to determine the 2007 Optical Laboratory Web Site of the Year. The winner will be announced at the Optical Laboratories Associations November meeting to be held in Indianapolis.

The January/February issue of LabTalk will feature a story on the Web Site Award winners including comments from ECPs on their nominated lab.
