Please Help Us #BringBackEyeDoctorBarbie

Please Help Us #BringBackEyeDoctorBarbie

The optometric community took part in a Thunderclap in late July, and there is still time to help #BringBackEyeDoctorBarbie!

A Thunderclap (TC) is when a community of people sends out the exact same message via their social media platforms at the same time to try to get attention or affect change. The optometric community is hoping to get Mattel’s attention to reverse their decision to discontinue the Eye Doctor Barbie doll.

Please post the below message(s) on ALL your social platforms and ask all your friends and colleagues to do the same.

Please use the posted image to accompany your TC/message.

Direct any questions to kosullivan@opted.org.

All platforms EXCEPT Twitter: @Mattel and @Barbie, we agree that #BarbieisEverything! Congrats for making her movie star dreams a reality! We miss it when @Barbie was a #DoctorofOptometry and would love to see her once again join the forces of America’s primary eye health and vision care providers.  #BringBackEyeDoctorBarbie
