End the Year Strong with the Top Progressive

It happens every year. As soon as we put away the Halloween decorations, the holiday season is upon us and, next thing you know, we’re ringing in the New Year! Chances are, many of your patients have waited until the last minute to schedule their annual eye exam, and the rush is on! But fear not, now is actually the perfect time to invite your patients to try the premium progressive selected by thousands[1] of ECPs: Unity® Via II.

​It’s one of the rare occasions when procrastination pays off—for you and your patients! If your patients have indeed waited to schedule their eye exam until Q4, you have a chance to not only provide them with a better vision experience, but also capitalize on the Premier Pays More promotion to increase your rewards and savings. You can finish your year strong by taking advantage of numerous special offers and provide your patients with the everyday progressive enhanced for today’s demanding visual needs. So, it's a win/win for everyone! 

The Unity Via II Difference – It’s Real!

​Since the launch of Unity Via II Progressive Lenses in May this year, thousands of eye care professionals have made the switch to Unity Via II and are now dispensing these innovative lenses as their premium progressive of choice. Is it the ease of fitting and dispensing? Effortless adaptation for patients? Or wider, sharper intermediate and reading fields that make them ideal for working on digital devices, delivering enhanced visual acuity and comfort.
Ask your peers, and they’re likely to say, “All of the above and more.”

The lens is fantastic! Distance optics are really clean, with minimal swim. Reading seems to be in a more natural position."
--Geoffrey R., OD - Hawaii[2]

I really like the new Unity Via Elite II lenses. They seem to give me a wider, broader, and clearer field of view throughout the progressive Rx vertical column. After personally trying them, it’s easier for me to recommend Unity Via Elite II to patients."
--Les O., Optician – Hawaii​

I love this lens! I am 100% convinced it’s an excellent lens and recommend it to everyone."
--Levon A., Optician – California

The Secret Behind Today’s Top Premium Progressive

The secret behind the success of Unity Via II can be summed up in one word: innovation. EquiBalance™, OptiScreen™, and Innovue™ technologies each deliver brand new features and benefits that both eye care professionals and patients love:

• Easy to fit
• Effortless adaptation
• Large reading area
• Wider peripheral clarity
• Enhanced distance acuity

As you know, two of the most important factors in a successful progressive lens are ease of dispensing and patient adaptation. Unity Via II scores high marks on both these fronts:

• Easy to fit
  Opticians can easily and confidently fit patients with a Unity Via II progressive using just a few standard measurements; the technologies do the rest, including automating customization. This simplifies training, resulting in enhanced staff effectiveness and practice efficiency. 
• Easy to Adapt
  Thanks to larger reading and intermediate fields, Unity Via II progressive lenses enhance visual acuity and comfort for patients, especially when they’re working on multiple digital devices. This effortless adaptation increases patient satisfaction and even reduces redos, addressing two of the biggest pain points expressed by ECPs[3].

For Your Patients

No Risk, All Reward
The Unity Promise reassures both ECPs and patients that trying new Unity Via II progressives is not only easy, it’s risk-free. If your patient isn’t totally thrilled with their new Unity Via II Progressives within one year[5], they can let their VSP network doctor know, and they’ll be replaced with another comparable lens of the patient’s choice for free. 

With all the available opportunities to end the year strong and grow your practice, now is the perfect time to send a friendly reminder to your patients to schedule their eye exam now. You’ll both be glad you did!
