The Pennsylvania Paraoptometric Association (PPA) is now accepting nominations for the 2008 Paraoptometric of the Year. The Paraoptometric of the Year Award is given annually to the optometric assistant or technician in Pennsylvania who has made the most outstanding and worthwhile contributions to the profession of optometry, paroptometry and the general public.

The awards committee will judge the nominees’ performance based on the following criteria: service to optometry and to paraoptometric associations; public and community service; and personal endorsement. Nominees must be members of the Pennsylvania Paraoptometric Association and membership must be in good standing.

Nominations can be submitted by local paraoptometric society or local optometric society, a POA member optometrist, a PPA member, or by nominee.

The Paraoptometric of the Year Award will be presented Friday June 6, 2008 during the Awards ceremony at June Congress in Pittsburgh, Pa. The honoree will receive a plaque, a gift from the Pennsylvania Paraoptometric Association and free registration to the conference being held that weekend.

If there is a paraoptometric that came to your mind while reading this letter, please do them the honor of nominating them for the Pennsylvania Paraoptometric of the Year Award for 2008. There is no better way to tell them how much you appreciate their dedication to your office and to your patients.
