The entire program will feature approximately 200 sessions made up of 300 hours of content presented by 100 of the industry’s finest and most sought-after speakers offering conferees the very best eyecare education.

“The VisionEd program at Vision Expo East 2024 is a testament to our commitment to advancing the eyecare industry through a strong education program that has been created by industry, for industry,” said Fran Pennella, Vice President, Vision Expo at RX.

“This year’s OD education program will feature new, dynamic and fun custom-designed clinical courses that will challenge the mind and provide engagement such as, “Ask The Experts,” and “Two Truths & A Lie,” where cases will be shared from conferees and our experts will offer their clinical acumen.

Windsour Eyes :  What began as a simple connection between an optician looking for frames and a man ready for an opportunity, Windsor Optical blossomed into a thriving business that has served the optical industry for over 50 years. Jay Kitnick launched Windsor in 1971. At the time, eyewear importation and distribution were in its infancy in the USA and Jay navigated the new landscape like a 15-year pro. From its small warehouse in Riverton, NJ  Jay used his connections, investors, and business acumen to amass a following of loyal customers serviced by a growing sales force covering territories in both North and South America.

A little more than a decade after Windsor opened its doors, Jay’s son Ken joined the family business bringing with him a fresh set of eyes and an eagerness to grow. Continuing to carve out their spot in the marketplace amid growing competition, Ken, Jay, and Ellen took many trips to the European eyewear manufacturers in Northern Italy and Northern France and hand-picked the latest eyewear fashions to offer their customers in the states. As eyewear production was still a cottage industry in Europe where frame assembly often occurred in individual homes and garages, the team met with manufacturers wherever they could, helping to design and create what Windsor became known for: styles that sell.
