IOT Lenses pledges support for IOA

IOT Lenses has signed a new agreement to support the International Opticians Association (IOA).

An international company with offices in Spain and California, IOT Lenses has more than 15 years of experience researching and developing digital ophthalmic lenses.

Commenting on the move, IOT general manager, Carolina Gago, said: “At IOT, we are immensely proud to have established a collaboration with the International Opticians Association to contribute to the professional development of all those who love our profession with passion and want to execute it with excellence.

“When I started my studies, I was fascinated by two fundamental aspects. One is the technical and clinical mixture that occurs in our profession. The other was the personal purpose I found in it: improving people’s quality of life by improving their vision.

“The complexity of our profession and the tremendous impact it has naturally leads us to create an interconnected community of opticians, where all professionals can support each other by creating synergies that allow us to progress and evolve quicker, elevating our profession.”

IOA president, Fiona Anderson, remarked: “I am delighted IOT has committed to support the IOA. I have had personal knowledge of the company for many years and their research and innovation in digital lens design enables eyecare practitioners to offer tailored solutions to their patients, supported by a team of committed professionals with a proven track record of academic research and engagement with the sector as a whole.

“As face-to-face conferences and trade shows begin to resume, I look forward to reacquainting myself with colleagues from IOT,” added Fiona.
