Jan. 31, 2024 — The Contact Lens Institute (CLI) has named the CLI 2024 Visionaries: 19 eyecare community leaders from a range of practice settings, research interests, and specializations who have demonstrated a commitment to raising awareness of recent advances in soft contact lenses and prescribing benefits.
Established in 2021, the program has expanded to include both the U.S. and Canada. This year, 10 visionaries have returned to the program after serving last year, and another nine have been newly appointed. Each has been selected partly for their ability to connect with professional colleagues, as they will participate in initiatives that promote best practices, tools, data, and clinical and practice management insights through CLI’s The EASY Way and See Tomorrow initiatives.
