PRIO ACQUIRED BY ESSILOR OF AMERICA

PRIO Corporation has recently been acquired by Essilor of America. This is an exciting step for the optical industry; given Essilor's strengths in optical technologies and lens design, this focus on the computer lens market will ultimately benefit ECPs and their patients.

Our mission remains the same – to help ECPs provide the best computer vision care possible. PRIO will be integrated into Essilor’s operations, but we will continue to serve our customers with the PCL and Browser lenses, the PRIO Vision Tester, and Shazam Lens Calculator software. The PRIO frame line has been discontinued, in order to focus all of our resources on diagnostic testing and lens products.

To order PRIO products such as an additional tester, retractable Nearpoint Rod, or for any questions on lenses or Shazam software, please call us at 800-377-4567 (option 4). We also offer free training via telephone on PRIO testing and computer lenses for new staff members or an associate.

As always, your business is greatly appreciated. PRIO, now as part of the Essilor organization, looks forward to serving you with our current and future computer vision products.
