DENVER—There’s been an overload of talk about football players the past few days as the National Football League conducted its annual draft of the top college prospects. Some of this talk centered around the debate over whether the Cleveland Browns made the right decision in drafting quarterback Baker Mayfield with the No. 1 choice in the draft and/or whether the New York Giants SHOULD have selected a quarterback with their pick. But what we do know is that one current professional football player did something this past week that REALLY does matter. Von Miller, a standout member of the Denver Broncos defense, held what is referred to as “Reveal Day” at the team’s Mile High Stadium.

NEW ROCHELLE, N.Y.—Being an optician has been a life-long passion for Preet Kalra, lead optician and buyer at Bright Eyes Optometry located here. She even went so far as to fake her first eye exam to get a pair of glasses when she was 11-years-old. In 2003, she went into an optical shop with the intention of getting her vision corrected and walked out with a part-time job. “From 2003 to 2007, I worked part-time and got exposed to the floor of the optical boutique. In January, Kalra took her love for eyewear to the web and created Optician Life—a fashion and lifestyle blog targeted toward anyone interested in the optical field. “I love writing and eyewear is my favorite topic to write about.
