The former chairman of the Colorado Optometry Board is being sued for sexual harassment by an unnamed former patient.

The suit alleges that in 2015, “While plaintiff was seated in an examination chair and undergoing an eye examination where her sight and mobility was restricted by equipment used in the examination, Defendant Paul Conkling aggressively began to grab, grope, and kiss Plaintiff against her wishes.”

“We know he’s done this to other women, and he has now denied it,” said attorney Pamela Maass, who filed the lawsuit with attorney Ross Pulkrabek of Keating Wagner Polidor Free.
