Think About Your Eyes Partners with Optelec, Hires Director of Development

Think About Your Eyes has announced the addition of two new partners, VFO Group (Optelec) and Compliancy Group, who have joined the 21 current partners from across the vision industry in supporting the campaign to promote annual eye exams and grow the industry overall.

The addition of the new partners coincides with the hiring of a full-time Director of Development for Think About Your Eyes, Ron Sallerson, who joined the team in August.

“The addition of new partners allows Think About Your Eyes to continue to grow eye exams and the industry overall,” said Jon Torrey, Executive Director, Think About Your Eyes. “We’re looking forward to putting Ron’s expertise to use and continuing the campaign’s expansion, and increased consumer influence, in support of the industry.”

VFO Group provides assistive technology for the visually impaired, specifically blind and low vision patients, and is comprised of several brands, including Optelec. VFO’s Canadian distributor, Optelec Canada, is located in Longueuil, Quebec.
