Which ones are you measuring now?\nTools to record key metrics in real time\, including those in the PECAA portfolio (e.g. ABB Analyze) that support more accurate and meaningful tracking.\nApplying metrics analysis to direct real changes in your practice\nCash Flow versus Profitability\n\nJoining us will be Bryan Hoban\, PECAA MBA Manager\, and Jenny Wiley\, PECAA Membership Manager and Practice Operations Advisor! \nPLEASE NOTE: This PECAA event has been planned following guidance at the applicable local\, state and federal levels.

SUMMARY:Transitions 3-Part Webinar Series (*ABO Approved*)
DESCRIPTION:Transitions 3-Part Webinar Series\n(Live Webinar – ABO Approved;\nEnduring Webinar – ABO Pending)\nPart 1: Thursday\, October 7\, 2021 | 10:00am – 11:00am PT\nPart 2: Thursday\, October 21\, 2021 | 10:00am – 11:00am PT\nPart 3: Tuesday\, November 2\, 2021 | 9:00am – 10:00am PT\nPresented by: Jackie O’Keefe\nSponsored by: Transitions \nDescription: \nPlease plan to join us for this 3 part webinar series\, made possible with an educational grant from our vendor partner\, Transitions. In this series\, Jackie O’Keefe will help you take a look at the ever changing light and vision relationship and the solutions that Transitions has to offer for all of your patients’ needs. \nPart 1: Fit for Generations\nThursday\, October 7\, 2021\n10:00am – 11:00am PT \nThe relationship between light and vision changes throughout life—as children\, as working adults and as we age. As eye health needs change one need is constant: light protection. Understanding the complicated relationship between light and vision throughout life\, and how patients define good vision\, can reveal new ways to bring forward product recommendations. \nPart 2: Transitions XTRActive Polarized\nThursday\, October 21\, 2021\n10:00am – 11:00am PT \nDifferent types of light create challenges to our vision. In very demanding light situations\, such as very bright light or reflective glare\, our vision can be compromised creating a poor experience. Exposure to these types of light situations can also amplify daily eye fatigue\, contributing to associated symptoms such as dry eyes\, itchy eyes\, headache and eye strain. In the long term\, repetitive exposure to intense light can create a cumulative effect and could have an impact on eye health. \nPart 3: Transitions XTRActive New Generation\nTuesday\, November 2\, 2021\n9:00am – 10:00am PT \nThere is an increase in awareness of the need for light protection with 70% of people saying that protecting their eyes and their eye health is more important now than ever. The latest research in eye health continues to reinforce the importance of light protection and the impact unprotected\, overexposure can have on our vision.The new generation of Transitions XTRActive lenses are especially designed to deliver the best extra darkness and the best extra light protection that very light sensitive eyeglass wearers and people who are exposed to intense bright light desire. \nREGISTER NOW
