Our team had a great time in Nashville for #AOA2024 last week with our partner Pioneer International! As longtime sponsors of the Annual AOSA Optometry Student Bowl powered by EssilorLuxottica, we cheered on this year's participants as they demonstrated their knowledge and passion for optometry. Congratulations to this year's winners! Tyson Montgomery (OSU), Karli Clark (ICO), and Abbey Kuborn (IUCO) went home with brand-new Volk lenses! We continue to be inspired by this next generation of eye care professionals. Thank you to everyone for your energy and dedication to making this space as fun as it is impactful. #AOA2024 #ASOAOSB #Optometry #EyeCare

We encourage you to continue in celebrating International Women in Engineering Day with us as we highlight the achievements of our own engineering team. We honor the contributions of Kathryn Lakatos and all of the incredible women in engineering who are shaping the future. Let us continue to empower diversity and inclusion to create a future where more women are inspired to pursue careers in engineering. We recognize your vital role in our industry. #INWED2024 #EnhancedByEngineering #WomenInHalma #WomenInSTEM
As we continue to celebrate International Women in Engineering Day, we’re profiling this rising engineering star. Inspired by the possibility of improving healthcare outcomes for individuals worldwide, Kathryn Lakatos pursued Biomedical Engineering, combining engineering and biology principles to develop solutions that directly impact patient care. Her connections led to an internship and a career at Volk Optical Inc., a Halma company with a mission of eradicating preventable blindness through accessible imaging of the eye. In 2023 Kathryn helped to launch a new surgical lens used by vitreoretinal surgeons, the company’s first new lens in five years, and she also supported the software development of Volk’s VistaView™ which enables those who live far from healthcare facilities to have their eyesight tested, particularly those in remote communities that may otherwise be underserved. #INWED2024 #EnhancedByEngineering #WomenInHalma #WomenInSTEM

We recently had the pleasure of chatting with Dr. Maayan E. Keshet, M.D., Medical Director at City Eye MD in New York City, who is among the first eye care professionals to introduce our new VIVA Non-Mydriatic Handheld Fundus Camera to her practice. We spoke about how VIVA will fill current obstacles with traditional imaging and how she plans to use VIVA. Dr. Keshet specializes in cataract, cornea, and refractive disease. “What sets me apart from other doctors is my approach to vision correction and tailoring my recommendations and treatments to the patient's needs” says Keshet. Dr. Keshet is excited about the future of eye care and integrating VIVA into her daily workflow. "A portable fundus camera can be invaluable in treating patients with disabilities and/or special needs in the office. A large table-top fundus camera cannot be used to image retinas in wheelchair bound patients or those with abnormal anatomy or musculoskeletal disorders. Having a portable, rechargeable fundus camera with a compact footprint will help me obtain images of patients anywhere, in any position, in any type of seating arrangement. I'm excited to have this tool available for use in the community and on missions as well." Why Viva? "I love the Volk VIVA for its compact size, easy-to-use interface, and sleek design and I'm excited to have the power to photograph the retina in the palm of my hand! There is nothing else like this on the market right now. Learn how Viva can bring exam room quality imaging to your own unique setting: https://hubs.la/Q02zR_Zm0
