Dear Chad,

At your convenience, please e-mail a standard mailing address and I will share information with you relative to appropriate contact persons in Ontario; as well as educational and advocacy materials which may assist you and others in getting laws changed in Ontario to expand vision standards and permit the use of BiOptics for visual assistance in the driving task.

Cordially,

Chuck Huss, C.O.M.S.
