NEW YORK—The next “Power Hour” will broadcast from the Vision Expo East conference here this week. It will be live with two episodes streaming from the exhibit hall floor inside the Essilor Booth LP7235 on Friday, March 20 and Saturday, March 21 from 2 to 3 p.m.

These segments will feature Dean Butler, founder of LensCrafters; David Ziegler, OD, who will talk about new high-tech optical merchandising; Eric Leonard, the president of Essilor of America; Matt Geller, OD, founder of OptometryStudents.com; Tom Loughran from Vision Expo and Deborah Castor from The Vision Council.
