If you don’t have a big picture planned, then every day just feels like a drag! — Ben T., Miami, FL
It’s time states expand their practice acts to take up the slack in eyecare. Ophthalmology is too busy with advanced surgical techniques to worry about primary eyecare, too. We should all work to our highest level of education. This will enable better eyecare access for the patients of America. — Robert E., Oakland Park, FL
The planning was great! Thank you! — Kristina J., Mishawaka, IN
From its inception, INVISION has provided and continues to provide valuable, relevant and inciteful content. I read it cover to cover! — Joni S., Iowa City, IA
You guys always do amazing! I would like to get some clear, up-to-date industry standards in an easy-to-read list: average frame sale, average anti-glare, average multiple pair percentages, average capture rate, etc. I feel like everything I find is outdated. I would also like to see how everyone feels the tariffs will affect our industry and when the effects will be felt. Additionally, I am very curious as to what role AI is playing in practices, and where people think it will be utilized moving forward. Thank you all for all you do! — Jami K., Wausau, WI

EDITOR’S NOTE: What great timing, Jami! We just started Big Survey planning for the second half of the year and these sound like some great questions for us to include. Thanks!
