$2 of Every Frame Purchase Will Support Prevent Blindness
Donations from the “Sharing our Vision” Program to Support Prevent Blindness Sight-Saving Programs and Services
CHICAGO (April 16, 2014) – Beginning today, Green Eyes Eyewear shoppers have the opportunity to help protect the environment and help protect sight. Through its new “Sharing our Vision” program, Green Eyes Eyewear will donate $2 for every purchase through its online store to Prevent Blindness, the nation’s oldest voluntary eye health organization.
“Green Eyes Eyewear is part of a leading Australian optical group, in business for more than 30 years,” said Daniel Cohen, CEO of Green Eyes Eyewear. “When we decided to expand our business to the United States, we wanted to demonstrate our global support for programs that save sight by partnering with Prevent Blindness. Through this collaboration, we can make a difference in the lives of people across the nation.”
Green Eyes Eyewear creates UV-protecting eyewear using eco-friendly materials. Extended exposure to UV has been linked to cataracts and age-related macular degeneration. Through their website, www.shopgreeneyes.com, Green Eyes Eyewear offers a wide selection of eyewear for both men and women.
“By contributing to our sight-saving efforts, Green Eyes Eyewear is demonstrating its clear commitment to protecting vision,” said Hugh R. Parry, president and CEO of Prevent Blindness. “We thank Green Eyes Eyewear and all of its customers for their support of our organization and our efforts.”
