For more than 40 years, LensCrafters has helped millions of people see better.

Today, it is taking a bold step toward redefining the way people experience eye care through a more integrated approach to vision and eye health.

With the opening of the new LensCrafters Vision & Eye Health Center^[^1], in Exton, Pennsylvania (USA), EssilorLuxottica is redefining what an optical destination can be. By bringing together comprehensive vision care, advanced diagnostics, medical services and surgical solutions under one roof, the Group is creating a seamless ecosystem that supports patients at every stage of their eye health journey.

Led by an independent ophthalmologist specializing in cataract and laser vision correction surgery, the Center combines clinical excellence with cutting-edge technology to deliver comprehensive eye health evaluations, medical diagnosis and coordinated treatment. Patients have access to a full range of advanced solutions, including laser vision correction, implantable collamer lenses, refractive lens exchange, glaucoma care, and both conventional and laser-assisted cataract surgery.

From Optical Leader to Med-Tech Pioneer

This milestone reflects a broader evolution for the future of eye care. For decades, LensCrafters has been synonymous with trusted vision care, iconic eyewear, wearable technology, myopia management and hearing-enhancing glasses. Today, it builds on that legacy by integrating medical diagnostics and surgical care into its offering. The result is a connected model where prevention, diagnosis, treatment and ongoing care come together in one continuous experience.

The new LensCrafters Vision & Eye Health Center follows a hub-and-spoke ecosystem. Patients can receive comprehensive eye health assessments in a familiar retail environment and, when needed, transition seamlessly to specialized medical and surgical care. The result is a more coordinated, accessible and patient-centered approach that simplifies the path to better vision and healthier eyes.

Building the Future of Eye Care

The launch of the LensCrafters Vision & Eye Health Center marks another significant step in EssilorLuxottica's global med-tech strategy. By complementing traditional vision care with advanced diagnostics, medical services and surgical expertise, the Company is expanding the role of its retail network, bringing together innovation, clinical expertise and a more integrated approach to eye health.

More than a new location, the Center lays the foundation for a scalable model designed to support patients throughout their eye health journey, from early detection and prevention to treatment and long-term follow-up.

As healthcare systems face increasing demand and limited specialist capacity, integrated models like this can expand access to earlier diagnosis, improve continuity of care and enable more effective treatment of eye diseases. Serving millions of patients every year across North America, LensCrafters is uniquely positioned to help make this vision a reality. The brand aims to progressively extend this integrated model to additional locations, advancing a future where comprehensive, tech-enabled and patient-centered eye care is more accessible than ever before.

Founded in 1983, LensCrafters is the leading optical retailer in North America, operating more than 1,000 stores across the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico. With its Vision & Eye Health Center, the brand begins its next chapter, bringing together retail excellence, medical innovation and a shared commitment to empowering human potential.
