(PRESS RELEASE) LEWISVILLE, TX — Ophthalmic lens technology leader HOYA Vision Care and leading eyewear company WestGroupe announced a new partnership to deliver an all-in-one frame and lens portfolio for complete pairs with attractive prices. ECPs can order HOYA lenses with WestGroupe frame lines from HOYA laboratories without the need to ship frames in. These packages are designed and priced to help ECPs compete with aggressive pricing from online optical sites with the option to upgrade to premium frames and lenses.
Frames from WestGroupe include the Superflex lines, Life Italia, Evatik, Fysh, Fysh Sun, Kliik, OTP, and OTP Sun. HOYA lenses include single vision, MySV, iD Lifestyle 3, Array 2, and Amplitude BKS, among other designs. HOYA’s durable anti-reflective coatings, Sensity Family of photochromics, and other lens options are also available.
“The second half of 2022 was financially challenging for many consumers, and according to Jobson Optical Research, 83 percent of ECPs report noticing patients trying to save money due to inflation,” said Simone Meskelis, Senior Vice President of ECP at HOYA Vision Care. “We are excited to partner with WestGroupe to offer an aggressively-priced yet high-quality solution for ECPs to deliver to their patients while meeting current market demands.”
“WestGroupe has always been focused on equipping independent eyecare providers with products, programs, and services that help them succeed and thrive in today’s competitive market. Partnering with HOYA on this initiative will do exactly that,” said Dennis Davis, Vice President of US Sales for WestGroupe.
