19. I have been a LatinoEyes.com® member for some time now and have been receiving surveys and completing them. However, I just tried to login, but it says my email address doesn't exist. Why?

Since you were one of the very first members of LatinoEyes.com®, you were not asked to create a username or password because it was not necessary. However, we have always maintained your account updated in our LatinoEyes.com® files.

Since then, we have created the LatinoEyes.com® login screen. However, because you do not have a username or password associated with your email address, it did not recognize you.

A while back we sent out an email with a link that will allow you to create a username and password so that you can see your LatinoEyes.com® account online. Once you create your username and password, you will immediately have access to your LatinoEyes.com® account and you will be able to redeem your check if you have reached $15 or more.

If you did not receive that email or have misplaced it, please email us at panel@latinoeyes.com and let us know. We can resend you the link.
