She brings a passion for optometric education to the role, which aligns with the educational mission of CRO. “I am honored and excited to have this opportunity to further the mission of this relevant and valuable clinical resource. As a well curated and timely publication, it is of immense importance to the busy optometric clinician,” said Dr. Resnick.
