Glad you found the article interesting and informative, Chris. As is obvious I put a lot of time into researching the information and digging through the documents to create the final product.

Good afternoon everyone.

Quick question.

And somewhere men are laughing, and somewhere children shout;

OK, I've looked all over the Optiboard site and I don't see an "Eyecare Professionals Only" forum. Can you please point me to where this is located? I'd certainly like an opportunity to give it a...

Cassandra,

check out this link to Eye Care America. It's a service of the American Academy of Ophthalmology. I don't know if your patient will qualify, but there is mention of special referrals...

MB,

Call Joe Black (past president of the Florida state society) at Eye Associates of Boca Raton (561) 391-8300.

Tell Joe that Gil Weber referred you. Joe knows his stuff. ;)

Good luck.

Thanks.

Cowboy, perhaps it was unintentional, but that sentence sure did make it sound as if you think VSP is the private practitioner's friend in this whole managed vision care game. If you are thinking...
