Can we stop trying to impress each other with our vast knowledge of PD measurements, wrap angles, optical formulae, years of experience and level of education long enough to consider the actual threats to our professions?
We are being eaten alive by frame amd lens vendors, insurance programs and online retailers. We continue to be distracted by shiny objects in the form of slick marketing, freebies, spiffs and outright bribes. Isn't it about time to stop fighting among ourselves and concentrate on the other forces that are benefiting from our desperate need to be the smartest ones in the room.
I believe that it is time to force our professional organizations to work TOGETHER to strengthen us all without the "help" of vendor money.
Whew.
