    Social distancing for opticians

    How are we as opticians going to stay safe for now and in the future?
    have anyone made any adjustments with the way you plan to take care of customers?
    Are you more concerned now that you see how easy viruses and germs can be passed from one to another?
    please tell me your thoughts and future plans?

    No Deodorant is the key. If you close enough to smell my armpits, you are to close!

    Optikam has a new electronic device called the OPD which allows you to take all measurements at a much safer distance.

    Anybody have any special plans for CL training? One of my docs said she saw an app that does the instructions but cannot remember the name.

    Thanks for replying, but I'm coming up empty. Maybe I'm not using the right terms. Ocutouch has been removed from the App Store. I'll keep searching. Thanks again!

    You get a double yard stick, and poke anyone with it that gets closer than that and tell them "Back! Back!"
