All sectors of the optical industry have had to adjust the way they function due to the ongoing closing of businesses across the globe because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Telemedicine is being embraced like never before. E-Commerce, once a concern of brick-and-mortar businesses, has become the sole revenue driver of many independents. Telecommuting is the new norm. But what comes after? The expectation that we all go back to exactly how we were before is likely a misguided one. It will probably be some sort of hybrid of life before AND during the havoc coronavirus wrought. Our panelists will discuss their visions, and expectations, of the eyecare world post-COVID-19 and how that might affect manufacturers, ECPs and consumers alike in the future.

This INVISION/Cleinman COVID-19 webinar will be a dialogue about what’s next. The economic hardships caused by COVID-19 are real. Practices are currently shuttered, employees currently on furlough and revenue has come to a screeching halt. But this, too, shall pass. For most, your practice will re-open and your patients will return. But the actions you take now will determine whether your practice will be more successful in a year or if you’ll struggle. History has proven that businesses that invest into downturns come out far stronger than those that retreat. While cutting your current costs are crucial, so too, is looking to the future.
In this COVID-19 Action Webinar, we’ll explore how to think strategically and come out ahead. We’ll explore the lessons learned from this COVID-19 experience and how to turn those lessons into prosperity for you and your practice. We’ll focus our discussions on:
