Virtual Vision Forum Launched
Eyecare professionals are invited to join Prevent Blindness’ The Focus Initiative, a virtual forum for people working in vision and public health. Its aim is to create a professional network that encourages the sharing of resources (including training, webinars, and events) among its members. Those interested can join the dedicated LinkedIn group at preventblindness.org/linkedin.
The first webinar, to be held Sept. 20, will focus on the release of an important study, Public Health Approaches to Reduce Vision Impairment and Promote Eye Health, from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine.
