Extensive Online Eye Care Directory

Recently lensshopper.com released an extensive online directory of opticians and eye clinics, spanning all 50 states. This online eye care directory helps you find the most trusted eye doctors located in your area.

Starting up in 2007, LensShopper.com is a price comparison guide to contact lenses. However, the site contains more than just price comparisons, providing its visitors with everything from professional eye care information to the latest eye care news.

Michaela Johansson, the site’s representative says, “It quickly became obvious to us that our visitors were in need of a good resource to manage their eye care concerns."

Ever since the online eye care directory was released the response from the users has been overwhelming. “Websites such as LensShopper.com can, and should, help create a forum where people can find the eye care resources they need, such as how to get a hold of trusted, local eye doctors."

The directory consists of more than 23,000 eye care professionals, covering all 50 states. “This is only the beginning. We are expanding the list every single day since there is simply such a great deal of knowledgeable and reliable eye doctors in the US."

Some might wonder why an online contact lens guide supplies this kind of resource. The fact is that everyone wanting to buy contact lenses, whether online or “in real life", has to get a prescription. This is something that LensShopper is more than glad to acknowledge and help with.

“Our ambition is, and has always been, to help our site’s visitors the best way that we can. We could never try to compete with the role of the optician. We are simply an alternative when it comes to purchasing the contacts," Johansson adds.
