Cesar Rodriguez is a thoughtful observer and commentator on the intersection of society and technology. His insights into the diffusion of innovation are marked by a keen understanding that acceptance of new technologies is directly tied to a person’s grasp of them. Rodriguez believes that fear of the unknown often hinders individuals from adopting new technology, and this hesitation can only be remedied through increased comprehension and familiarity, which is often bolstered by savvy marketing strategies.

From the personalized fitting experience offered by EyeCClearly to embracing technology for consumer-driven success, this episode is packed with forward-thinking strategies for optometry professionals.
