Optik Magazine Appoints New Editor-in-Chief

Optik Magazine is pleased to announce the appointment of Shan Khan, R.O, as its new Editor-in-Chief.

Khan, a self-confessed “optical nerd,” brings 30 years of optical industry experience to the role. Her varied professional experience as an industry representative, a practice consultant, a business owner, an optician and educator provides a unique and broadly-informed perspective on the issues facing the optical industry.

As a prominent graduate and instructor from the Seneca Opticianry program, Khan was recently honoured as a nominee for the prestigious Ontario Premier’s Awards in the Health Sciences Category.

Khan’s editorial debut will be made in the February-March issue of Optik, where she writes that she looks forward to working with industry leaders in all segments of our exciting industry: “I believe our community can be stronger when we work and imagine ourselves as a team.”

Welcome to the Optik Family, Shan.
