Welcome to the 21st Annual Invitational Lens Symposium!
November 20 -21, 2021
The topic for this year's symposium is Stress and Vision.
Presentations, workshops and discussion will be on using lenses and prisms to reduce visual stress.

We encourage everyone attending to give a paper (15 minutes) or a pearl (5 minutes) on the topic.
