Loupe Fitting Tomorrow August 27
by Susan Petras 26 Aug '24

26 Aug '24

Hello D1, There seems to be a mis-communication about tomorrows Loupe Fittings. Please ignore the e-mail sent out by Jean Lyon regarding the 2:30 start time. Loupe fittings for D1 have been scheduled in the morning as per the schedule I circulated and what is listed on UM Learn - THERE HAS BEEN NO CHANGE (other than the move of the clinic tour session of tomorrow morning). There are loupe fittings in the afternoon for DH2 and the new IDDP Students as well as an opportunity for Faculty to have repairs or adjustments made to their loupes. However, your times stay the same in the morning. Sorry for the Confusion!
