The steady growth of our company in recent years coincided with our commitment to private practice optometry. Focusing our resources on the needs of optometry was good strategy five years ago, and it’s still good today. You’re stronger; we’re stronger.

We believe that the whole optical industry needs strong, independent optometry. Because significant challenges to optometry still remain, we believe our support of state and national optometry is more important than ever.

Our products fit nicely with private practice optometry.

You’re at the center of our dedication to eye care because you provide comprehensive eye care. That’s where we come in. By developing innovative products to suit your special needs, we benefit, too.

One such product is the new Kodak Unique Progressive, a back-surface design that’s customized to fit the patient’s frame selection. It’s already a huge success, and growing faster all the time.

R&D is an important focus as well.

We’ve just introduced Kodak Precise Short™, the short corridor progressive that brings excellent optical precision to small frames.

Vision First Design™ is the name of the technology revolution behind our new progressive lenses– Kodak Unique and Kodak Precise Short Lenses, and before those, Kodak Precise® Lens. Each product provides smooth gradation of power, gentle binocular balance and guaranteed visual performance.

Kodak CleAR™ Anti-Reflective Coating was developed to improve visual acuity while fighting off oily smudges and dirt. It’s also extremely durable to stand up to wear and tear.

We continue to research new lens designs, materials and coatings to meet the needs of the optical industry.

We remain committed to optometry. 

We remain the single largest contributor, on a percentage basis, to optometry.  Unlike companies that devote their resources to consumer advertising, Signet Armorlite devotes energy and funding where they belong—in doctors’ offices. 

We’ve been platinum-level AOA sponsors. We’ve sponsored the Optometry’s Meeting™ Presidential Celebration the last five years. We’re a participant of the AOA Ophthalmic Council. We sponsored the Healthy Eyes Healthy People™ program and the AOA video “What’s In It For Me.”

We’re helping practices grow through PracticePlus.

Since 1998, we have provided more than $22 million to over 4,000 PracticePlus® members. As a member, you can use those funds any way you see fit to promote a strong practice.

There’s another reason to join PracticePlus. Our Non-Dues Revenue Funding Program allows participating state optometric associations to receive substantial financial support when their members dispense and redeem Kodak Progressives through PracticePlus.

We’re fortunate to have long-standing, rewarding relationships within the optometric community. We remain, as ever, unwavering in our support of optometry.
