After nearly 36 years at the helm, Ed Bennett, O.D., M.S.Ed., F.A.A.O., F.S.L.S. will be retiring from serving as both Executive Director and President of the Gas Permeable Lens Institute (GPLI) at the end of 2024 (full retirement announcement available here: https://gpli.info/dr-ed-bennett-to-retire-as-executive-director/). While we will deeply miss Ed and his skillful leadership and enthusiastic approach to expanding education in specialty contact lenses, we are anticipating a bright future with a new Executive Director who can provide sound leadership and strategic direction to expand the growth and reach of the GPLI.

The Executive Director will create and implement the organization’s strategic plans in collaboration with the Board of Directors and oversee the daily operations of the organization and its staff and volunteers. To learn more about the position and to apply, go to: https://gpli.info/apply/
