Organizers of the upcoming Vision Expo East have announced that participants can expect to see a few new program features this year. Something to dream about this spring.

The event will be held March 22–25, at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center in New York City. Thanks to the renovations made to the building, the continuing education sessions will be located on Level 1, the same level as the Lenses & Processing Technology, Medical & Scientific and Low Vision pavilions. This year’s program will offer over 325 hours of continuing education.

Optometrists will also be able to relax and enjoy refreshments in the new Optometry Club, which will host a student luncheon on Friday, in addition to networking events on Friday and Saturday.

Eyecare professionals will have access to a symposium on UV rays organized by the Better Vision Institute. During a two-hour panel, Jay Gibb, Paul Michelson and Justin Bazon will discuss the damaging effects of these rays, ways to guard against exposure and how best to deliver this message to patients.
