Elevating Women in Eye Care

 
 

The professional evolution of women within the medical field has significantly changed over time. Once upon a time, there were no women doctors, and in 2022, women are leading many different medical industries, with optometry being no exception. This educational event will highlight the strengths of powerhouse women within eye care. Come join us and become inspired by these incredible women optometrists!

Almost 700 attended our event and we received amazing feedback!
