On June 24 we opened the doors of our lab in Caguas for a free dispensing training workshop. Sales staff, dispensers, and optical shop teams came from across the island.
The idea was simple: dispensing is where the patient experience is won or lost, and almost nobody trains for it formally. So we built the session around three things.
Mastery at the counter
The essentials of the recommendation process and how to select the right lens for each case.
Service that shows
Patient care best practices — the kind that show up on the second visit.
Staying current
What is changing in lens technology and which tools are worth having on hand.
We like doing this here rather than in a rented room, because when it ends people can watch the machines running. Understanding how a lens is surfaced changes the way you explain it at the counter.
We will do it again. If you would like us to let your team know next time, get in touch.
