(PRESS RELEASE) DALLAS, TX — AEG Vision, an owner and operator of leading optometry practices, announced that it has acquired Eyes of the World with two locations in Denver, CO. It’s AEG Vision’s second acquisition in two weeks.
“Dr. Channing Baird, the Doctors and staff at Eyes of the World are a welcome addition to AEG Vision,” said Eric Anderson, CEO of AEG Vision. “For over 20 years, Eyes of the World has offered a rich, unique patient experience built on a foundation of exceptional medical care.”
Eyes of the World and Drs. Channing Baird, Kathryn Lachenman, Rupa Patel and Rachel Knowlton have thrived within two historic Denver neighborhoods.
