Eye health is more than a personal wellness issue, it is a driver of employee productivity, engagement and wellbeing. In this webinar, insights from two national studies, one by Versant Health and one by Transitions Optical, reveal how widespread vision challenges are impacting today’s workforce and what employers can do to help.
Attendees will learn:
• The most common vision challenges employees face, and how unaddressed eye strain and light sensitivity can impact health and workplace performance
• Barriers that prevent employees from using vision benefits, and what motivates action
• Practical, evidence-based strategies to raise eye health awareness and increase benefits utilization
