Association of Technical Opticians

With the summer upon us, it is very important that we let our patients know the importance of proper UV protection. This means we need the resources to properly educate them. The EPA has create a sunwise program that allows us to monitor the UV index in our geographic locations by way of a zip code widget. ATO created a simple 7′ x 7′ placard that can be attached to a front window or a front door to allow foot traffic to see the UV index for the day at a glance along with a short description fo the proper precautions to take. The 7′ x 7′ placards are designed to mimic the EPAs UV poster which is also attached alogn with a few other relevent materials. Use these resources to inform patients about proper sunwear.
