Show organisers, The Vision Council and RX, have announced that the Vision Expo West (September 14-17), held in Las Vegas at the Venetian Expo & Convention Center, is open for registration.
The event will include show areas such as The Panorama, a new section spotlighting innovative vision technology; The Atelier, featuring artisanal eyewear and global independent designers; and The Focus for eye care needs including lens, coating and contact lens technology and other eye disease management solutions. While the Innovation Stage will host special events, panels and presentations.
Other areas include The Park, showcasing the latest styles in large displays; The Union for independent designers; and The Suites, a collection of luxury fashion houses in an appointment-based setting within The Venetian and Palazzo.
Meanwhile, an exhibition hall will open on Thursday 15 and the education program on the Wednesday 14. This will have over 320 hours of diverse topics exploring business strategies, patient care, technology, and clinical education across glaucoma, macular degeneration, anterior dry eye and more.
The OptiCon Hub will host networking, social events and access to representatives and resources from various industry associations.
Fran Pennella, vice president at RX, said: ‘We are looking forward to a great Show in Las Vegas this September. In addition to our energetic Show Floor neighborhoods—showcasing the full landscape of vision care products—and programming, we are particularly excited to offer a completely new education program.’
Mitch Barkley, vice president of Trade Shows and Events at The Vision Council, commented: ‘As the vision care community continues to get back to conducting business in-person, we’ll be curating a number of opportunities for networking and relationship-building. As always, there will be special opportunities for young professionals and students, too.’
