“Spring Hill Eyecare increased pairs of Transitions lenses sold by 60 percent through in-practice and community efforts, such as an interactive lens display where patients can try all of the Transitions Signature style colors,” said Drew Smith, director, North America Channels, Transitions Optical. “Creating these unique experiences inside and outside of the office has driven Spring Hill Eyecare to success. We congratulate them on this honor.”
Amie Robinson, optical manager at Spring Hill Eyecare; Dr Rob Szeliga, founder and owner, Spring Hill Eyecare; Melanie Jenkins, office manager, Spring Hill Eyecare; and Tanna Carter, optician, Spring Hill Eyecare accepted the award on behalf of the practice.
“Our journey in preparation for Transitions Academy was amazing,” said Robinson. “We gained confidence in our understanding of Transitions lenses and they’re now part of the conversation with every patient. It is eye-opening as to how many patients are open to the idea of trying Transitions lenses for the first time to find that they want them in every pair.”
