From corporate to omd practice

hello fellow ODs! I am changing jobs. after 22 years in private practice/pe owned practice, I am moving to a omd practice. there is no primary care, only surgical care. they are heavy into LAL lenses (adjustments would be my job). no contacts no glasses no optical

what skills do I need to brush up on? any words of wisdom from other ods in omd practices? thank you!!!
