TLC Tysons Corner hosts Vision Source Tech Night

Post date: Feb 29, 2012 2:52:18 AM

Many thanks to Joan Reich and Laura LeBoeuf, PHR, CMM for coordinating what could easily have been the most fun TLC activity that I have attended! You two did a wonderful job of putting together a fun evening of activities.

Vision Source practices were invited to send their technical team to TLC Tysons Corner. Once we rescued a team of technicians that got stuck in the elevator, we were ready to roll with 11 participants.

Dr. Holzman gave a short lecture on LASIK and PRK basics. Then, we broke out into 3 different stations.

In one station, I talked about basic clinical protocols and the importance of filling out treatment and post-op forms in completion (that helps out in soooo many ways!). Our new PRC, Nicole, discussed financial and scheduling concerns.

The second station was run by JoAnne who showed everyone how to obtain high quality Wavescans and Pentacams. We were able to compare and contrast good and poor scans.

The third station was run jointly by Dr. Holzman and Leni. Each person got a chance to fire the laser onto a "plastic". After we were done, Dr. Holzman said, "My center was definitely the most fun!" How can any of us other station leaders compete with a darn laser?!

Many thanks to the following technicians that participated:

Lake Ridge Vision Source: Julia, Jennifer, Jeannine, Carla, and Judith (Great showing!)

Dr. Finley's Family Eyecare: Mark and Rita

Virginia Eye Care Center: Laura

Focus Eyecare Center: Dawn

We should totally do Tech Night again! - jw
