Vision Expo West 2025: How engineering is shaping the future of optometry

Vision Expo West has been around longer than I’ve been in the industry, but this year was my first time attending, and it was well worth the trip to Vegas. The show is known for its cutting-edge eyewear designs, but what really impressed me was the technology shaping the optometry industry as a whole. From tools addressing staffing shortages with remote care capabilities to fully automated lines producing custom lenses, exhibitors were tackling a wide range of challenges head-on.
