SUMMARY:Welcome New PECAA Vendor Partner\, Neurolens: ~ 9:00am Pacific/12:00pm Eastern
DESCRIPTION:Welcome New PECAA Vendor Partner: Neurolens — The Future of Prism Is Now\nDate & Time: Wednesday\, April 14\, 2021  |  9:00am – 10:0am Pacific\nPresented by: Neurolens\, PECAA Vendor Partner \nDescription: \nPECAA is pleased to introduce our new Lens Vendor Partner\, neurolens\, to the Membership! Join us on Wednesday 4/14/21 @ 9:00am Pacific to learn how this new technology can give your patients the relief they need. \nAt least two out of three patients experience the symptoms of eye misalignment\, and that number is continually increasing. Clinical research has shown that even small misalignments can cause painful symptoms; but measuring prism with a high degree of accuracy has historically been a huge challenge for eye care providers. Relief is in sight with neurolens. \nThe neurolens Measurement Device (nMD) is an objective\, accurate and repeatable way to measure binocular vision. Employing over 10\,000 data points per patient\, the cutting-edge eye tracking system can identify eye misalignment as small as 0.1 Prism Diopters. The diagnostic information from the nMD is used to prescribe neurolenses with patented Contoured Prism technology\, which bring the eyes into alignment\, relieving the headaches\, neck and shoulder pain\, eye strain\, dry eye and dizziness that many of your patients experience every day. \nLearn more about becoming a neurolens provider on this webinar\, and experience dramatic patient outcomes and dramatic practice impact. \nREGISTER NOW
