Company Description

In 2018, we created EveryDay Contacts to commercialize our own coating technology and to fill in a gap in the contact lens market for contact lens users who wanted a great consumer experience from their contact lens but still want a relationship with their eye doctor.

We completely understand the consumer’s need for convenient access and best pricing. However, a contact lens is a foreign object you stick in your eye and still requires a prescription. A 2015 Hanover Research Study that found that 94% of contact lens users rely on the lens recommendation of their doctor. Our own customer discovery showed the same results. In addition, eye doctors recognize that when they are involved in the decision there are better health outcomes for the contact lens user. So, we created a business model that balances the demands of the consumer for price and convivence while recognizing the essential role of the eye doctor to maintain their patient’s health.
