News from the president

Dear IOA Member,

You are reading my first quarterly newsletter for the IOA. Let me introduce myself. My name is Jan Roelof Polling, born and raised in the Netherlands. I became an orthoptist in 1998. After serving on the IOA Council of Management as the Dutch Representative, I was elected to serve as your next president of the IOA. I am succeeding Karen McMain who served this office from 2012 until June 2018. As your president, I have been working with the Council of Management to develop the IOA’s new strategic plan for 2019-2022. We plan to use these newsletters to keep you updated on this and all IOA business. To share relevant orthoptic ideas and important orthoptic news, please contact me via president@internationalorthoptics.org

Let’s work together to put orthoptics on the world map!
