The event, which will take place at The Venetian Las Vegas at noon on Sept.16, 2022, will highlight the expanding influence of women throughout all sectors of the industry and eyecare community, including honorees from this year and prior years.

“The span of the work these Most Influential Women are doing, through private practice and local or even national activities, within the supplier and lab worlds, making change in research, academia and public health sectors, reminds us of the wide and important scope of vision care and the impact of eyewear,” said Marge Axelrad, senior vice president and editorial director of Vision Monday.
