LEWISVILLE, TEXAS, (March 31, 2021) – Ophthalmic lens technology leader HOYA Vision Care responded today to recent industry developments affecting supplier choices. At a time when eye care professionals (ECPs) are faced with challenges from lab acquisitions and direct-to-consumer supplier competition, our HOYA commitment as the Ally of the independent ECP remains strong.

Since 1941, HOYA has been a dependable partner and supplier, delivering patented technology that provides patients with the vision solutions that help ECP practices differentiate in a complex environment. In our fifth annual customer survey, ECPs ranked the overall value of HOYA’s product value at 99 percent and satisfaction working with HOYA customer service at more than 90 percent.

“As the optical industry continues to acquire and consolidate, we are moved to deepen our commitment to ECPs and their patients,” said Patrick McCarthy, ECP Channel Vice President. “Every HOYA Vision Care employee from leadership to customer service is consistently working together for one purpose: the ECP. We offer innovative programs from marketing, training, customer service and personal touchpoints to ensure that HOYA Vision Care supports the independent ECP business.”

HOYA continues to focus on ECPs and their patient success as our top priority by investing in innovative tools and platforms to help the ECP win:
