Nerd Session - See Through The Eyes of The Patient

GUEST SPEAKER: CHARLIE SACCARELLI

Charlie Saccarelli isn’t just an optician—he’s a force in the vision world. A master optician who has taken the stage internationally, Charlie has lectured and led workshops on everything from homonymous hemianopsia to low vision to the art (and science) of opticianry. His expertise has shaped textbooks, filled research journals, and inspired eye care professionals around the globe.

Since taking the reins in 2015, Charlie has transformed Chadwick Optical from a modest shop of 4 people in 2,500 square feet into a powerhouse with 40 experts and a buzzing 30,000-square-foot facility. But he’s not just building a company—he’s taking a stand. An outspoken critic of healthcare’s inefficiencies, Charlie has made it his mission to fight for better. That passion is woven into Chadwick Optical’s unapologetic slogan: “Let’s Exceed the Standard of Care.”

Because for Charlie, “good enough” will never be good enough.
