Meet the Nominee: Ginny Mercer, OD

By Essilor USA

I've known Ginny Mercer for almost 20 years. Her passion for the less fortunate and underprivileged is unsurpassed by anyone I've ever known. Her commitment to helping ALL people see better is reflected in the countless hours of her own time she volunteers to VOSH, The Millionaires Club, Child Haven and the King County Health Clinic. She travels as often as she can internationally to Uganda and Jamaica providing eye care services. People are drawn to her genuine, sweet, caring heart and she works tirelessly to help the greater cause. Ginny is a Licensed Dispensing Optician working for a prominent practice in Seattle, WA, and she speaks and teaches continuing education classes throughout Washington state.  I can't think of anyone more deserving to be selected and I'm confident she would be an excellent partner and representative of Essilor in its mission of Improving Lives by Improving Sight.
