EACH ISSUE, INVISION surveys ECPs around the country about which vision products are selling best in their stores/practices. Then we calculate the results and share them with you to give you a gauge of front-line sales activity across the United States.

What we recommend for the patient is what sells. There are those on a budget, but once we explain why we recommended a particular product to meet their prescription needs, together we find a way. Transitions Vantage and drive-wear fittings are increasing overall. Patients want narrow slit zyl and metal frames.

Digitally-surfaced lenses, such as Autograph II SV from Shamir. Patients report having clearer vision than they’ve ever experienced with their glasses. It created a lot of buzz! Also, we’ve been selling frames with natural materials (bamboo, wood temples, wood-look, etc). Carter Bond has been a great seller.
