All Aboard

This month’s issue of Eyecare Business unveils a very exciting and anticipated initiative for the magazine: the introduction of EB’s editorial board. As the publication embarks on another year of providing expert-led insights, data-driven ideas, and fashion-forward strategies for the optical and beyond, the new editorial board will play a central role in ensuring EB stays true to its mission of providing cutting-edge, retail-focused, business-building strategies specifically for eyecare professionals today.

Each of the nine eyecare professionals brings a unique, expert perspective to support and inspire our readership. It is my pleasure to introduce the EB editorial board members below.

To highlight their wealth of knowledge, we dug deep and asked not about their successes—but their pain points. Specifically, what are the issues they are experiencing within their eyecare businesses, and what is their crucial advice on navigating and overcoming these persistent day-to-day obstacles? Their vital input, outlined in the 10 Pain Points in Practice—and How To Tackle Them feature, will inspire you to face your professional challenges head-on.

This month’s issue is also packed with timely topics from today’s most trending eyewear styles (outlined in our FrameBuyer feature) to artificial intelligence’s impact on the low vision space, and more. Plus, we continue to provide applicable tools for the optical neophyte, and this month’s Back to Basics column focuses on the fundamentals of frame adjustments.

Whether a seasoned eyecare industry leader or an optical newbie, we hope you enjoy the issue!
