With many offices closed and eyeglass shipments disrupted, the situation was chaotic. “When everyone literally had the rug pulled out from under them, no previous systems you had in place were going to be helpful when you’re winging it,” recalled optician Ruth Domber, who co-owns 10/10 Optics, a popular optical boutique and optometric practice in New York City. http://www.visionmonday.com/business/labs/article/at-your-service-vm1020/ Lab Event Focuses on Dollars and Sense http://www.visionmonday.com/business/labs/article/lab-event-focuses-on-dollars-and-sense/ Mon, 21 Oct 2019 00:00:00 -0400 Vision Monday and LabTalk hosted the Modern Lab event, an hour-long session on Thursday that explored how smart investments enable optical labs to adapt and grow.

Eyecare professionals and optical retailers are feeling the heat, and so are the labs they depend on. http://www.visionmonday.com/business/labs/article/rx-for-success/ Top Labs Earn High Marks in VM’s Annual ‘Checkup’ http://www.visionmonday.com/vm-reports/top-labs/article/top-labs-earn-high-marks-in-vms-annual-checkup/ Mon, 11 Sep 2017 01:00:00 -0400 NEW YORK—The history of the modern U.S. wholesale business can be summed up with two aphorisms: “If you can’t beat ’em, join ’em,” and “Only the strong survive.” The first one applies to the dozens of labs that, over the past two decades, have been acquired by suppliers. The second applies to the wholesale labs that have remained independent. Both types of labs are represented in Vision Monday’s 2017 Top Labs Report, which ranks the industry’s largest labs. http://www.visionmonday.com/vm-reports/top-labs/article/top-labs-earn-high-marks-in-vms-annual-checkup/ Top Labs' Vital Stats http://www.visionmonday.com/vm-reports/top-labs/article/top-labs-vital-stats-2017/ Mon, 11 Sep 2017 00:59:00 -0400 http://www.visionmonday.com/vm-reports/top-labs/article/top-labs-vital-stats-2017/ Independent Lab Execs Share Views on Business Challenges and Opportunities http://www.visionmonday.com/vm-reports/top-labs/article/independent-lab-execs-share-views-on-business-challenges-and-opportunities/ Mon, 11 Sep 2017 00:58:00 -0400 http://www.visionmonday.com/vm-reports/top-labs/article/independent-lab-execs-share-views-on-business-challenges-and-opportunities/ Vision Monday’s TOP LABS – 2017 (in alphabetical order) http://www.visionmonday.com/vm-reports/top-labs/article/vision-mondays-top-labs-2017-in-alphabetical-order/ Mon, 11 Sep 2017 00:57:00 -0400 http://www.visionmonday.com/vm-reports/top-labs/article/vision-mondays-top-labs-2017-in-alphabetical-order/ VMs Top Labs Performance Analysis http://www.visionmonday.com/vm-reports/top-labs/article/vms-top-labs-performance-analysis-2017/ Mon, 11 Sep 2017 00:56:00 -0400 http://www.visionmonday.com/vm-reports/top-labs/article/vms-top-labs-performance-analysis-2017/
