Coastal Contacts Inc., which is the largest online retailer of glasses and contact lenses in the world, has received the Vision Monday® Lead, Follow or Get out of the Way Award for the most Daring Social or Web Presence.
Vision Monday®, which is based in New York, is the industry’s leading source of news and news analysis.
Coastal Contacts’ founder and Chief Executive Officer, Rogerd Hardy, stated that the company was really pleased to be recognised by Vision Monday and to be part of the optical industry, which is changing so rapidly. In his opinion, the use of the most modern technology is the key to success in the industry and those who fail to adapt will soon stay behind.
The company has over one million friends on Facebook and has recently shipped its one millionth pair of glasses. It was founded in 2000 and operates in 150 countries through a family of websites.
