In recent years, the eyecare business has seen the rise of aggregators, who are using an influx of private equity funds to consolidate independent optometry practices. The Martinsburg, WV and Hagerstown, MD areas experienced this phenomenon firsthand when a local optometry chain was acquired by one of the largest aggregators in the country. What remains when a large aggregator dominates a local market are pockets of underserved customers desiring a higher level of care and attention. Specifically, patients in need of more medically advanced eyecare, customers seeking more personalized service, and consumers looking for better value eyewear, all of which is absent from the aggregators’ business model. This is the space in which Vision 2020 PLLC operates.
Vision 2020 PLLC began in Martinsburg, WV in January 2020 and received an enthusiastic response from the community. Vision 2020’s experienced staff strive to provide medically advanced eyecare along with a full optical offering a wide selection of name-brand and budget eyewear. As customers discovered the Vision 2020 difference, we had the opportunity to expand to Hagerstown, MD by acquiring the private practice of a retiring practice owner. Vision 2020 PLLC hopes to open additional locations that are staffed with exceptional doctors who are committed to returning optometry to its patient-focused roots. Vision 2020 is dedicated to building long-term customer relationships by focusing on the patient.
