Seniors: Eyewear's Largest Patient Base
|
|
|
Exceptional Service and Affordable Eyewear |
With all the chatter about the millennial generation these days, one might forget that seniors represent the largest portion of the eyeglass wearing population. In fact, roughly 77% of the American adult population age 55 and over wear Rx glasses, compared to just 53% of millennials.
When planning your growth strategy for 2016, keep in mind that affordability and service are essential to winning over this demographic. Throw in a good dose of fashion since grannie glasses are a thing of the past. Think modern day cat-eyes, deeper silhouettes to accommodate reading prescriptions, light-weight material for all day comfort, bright colors for added vitality. See left column for recommended frame styles. For more pointers on growing your senior patient base, check out this recent article from Review of Optometric Business.

ModPods: Eye-Catching Readers
|
|
|
With 12.5% of American adults wearing readers, it makes sound business sense to carry a wide selection for your patients. Further, 78% of the reader sales originate in grocery, drug, and convenience stores underscoring the importance of affordability and convenience. INVISION Magazine (Nov. 2015) gave our ModPod Readers top billing in its Eye Pro Gear column: "Ignite impulse buys with a compact counter display of ModPod Readers from Modern Optical."
This colorful POP is a magnet for the reader population. About the size of a pen, these unisex ophthalmic glasses literally fold into themselves for an efficient use of space in a purse or shirt pocket. ModPod Readers are available in six colors and five powers, and can be purchased individually or as a complete set of 30.
