Global Myopia Awareness Coalition Names 2025 Board Members

The Global Myopia Awareness Coalition (GMAC) announced its 2025 Board of Directors, reaffirming its commitment to raising awareness and driving global action to address childhood myopia.

Olga Prenat, Head of Medical and Professional Affairs, Global and EMEA at EssilorLuxottica, will continue in her role as GMAC Board Chair for 2025. Jeon Enzu, Senior Director, Global Strategic Marketing, Pediatric Eye Health Solution at Johnson & Johnson Vision, will assume the role of Co-chair. Joining them on the 2025 board are:

  • Bill Scott, President, Jobson
  • Elizabeth Lumb, Director, Global Professional Affairs, Myopia Management, CooperVision
  • François Couillard, CEO, Canadian Association of Optometrists
  • Lori Archer, CEO, United Healthcare Vision
  • Sandra Block, President, World Council of Optometry

The diverse expertise of the 2025 board members will play a key role in advancing GMAC’s global initiatives and broadening its impact.

“As we enter 2025, I’m honored to continue serving as GMAC Board Chair alongside our board members,” said Olga Prenat. “While awareness of myopia has grown, there’s still much to be done, particularly in educating parents about their critical role in shaping their children’s eye health. As a coalition, we’re committed to expanding our outreach and collaborating closely with health care organizations and professionals to ensure families everywhere have the tools they need to manage this growing health concern.”

As myopia rates continue to rise worldwide, GMAC remains dedicated to combating the myopia crisis through awareness, advocacy, and collaboration with key stakeholders and health care associations.
