CECBR and Canadian Optometry Group Announce Collaboration

Thursday, February 1 2018 | 00 h 00 min | News

Canadian Eye Care Business Review (CECBR), the digital online resource for independent eye care practitioners in the Canadian market, and Canadian Optometry Group (COG), an email-based and commercially-independent forum restricted to Canadian optometrists and optometric educators operated by Dr. Peter Rozanec and Dr. Glen Chiasson, are proud to announce a content collaboration.

CECBR will provide a monthly digest of the best contributions from COG content on their website.  Content from COG is focused on topical issues affecting Canadian Optometry and has been a valuable resource for its members. All contributions will protect the anonymity of the COG members. CECBR Editors Drs. Jeff and Tina Goodhew will make regular posts on COG, bringing valuable content and information to its members.

COG is a private Google forum that provides a private platform for optometric colleagues across Canada to communicate about issues relevant to practice—to post questions and information, seek opinions and exchange ideas. Membership to COG is restricted to Canadian Optometrists, Optometric Schools and academics at Canadian Optometric Universities.

Eligible persons can apply for membership at canadianoptometrygroup@gmail.com.

Canadian Eye Care Business Review can be viewed at eyecarebusiness.ca.
