Optometry Divas celebrates its 10th anniversary in 2025, marking a "Decade of Focus" on empowering women optometrists and advancing gender equity.
This significant milestone features two key initiatives: the All White Dinner Banquet Fundraiser and the 2025 Educational Retreat.
The All White Dinner Banquet Fundraiser, scheduled for July 26, 2025, and partnered with Optometry Giving Sight, addresses critical barriers for Haitian optometry students lacking clinical training due to unrest.
Funds provide safe rotations at L'Université de Montréal.
The event, held in Orlando, Florida, includes dinner, an auction, and Raquel Pelissier (Miss Universe 2016 1st runner up).
Lauretta Justin, OD, founder, stated, "Investing in these students secures global eye health and cultivates the next generation of optometry leaders."
The 2025 Educational Retreat, scheduled for July 26-27, 2025, offers 16 CE credits over two days in Orlando (hotel rate starts at $179/night) with expert speakers.
Courses cover artificial intelligence (AI) diagnostics, gene therapy, and smart contact lenses, empowering ODs as the CEO of YOU.
