NEW YORK—Memorial Day 2020 is shaping up to look pretty different from the unofficial start of summer that most of us are used to.

NEW YORK—Women’s influence in optical is undeniable and today, more women than ever before are playing vital roles at all levels of our industry.

NEW YORK—If nothing else, living through this pandemic has forced all of us to learn how to adapt. Many of us have shifted our habits to bend to the constrictions imposed by COVID-19: working from home, shopping and socializing online, home schooling our children, worrying about our health, our jobs, our finances, and ultimately, what the future might hold—all while trying to keep our sanity in this very surreal time.
