NASSAU VISION GROUP ANNOUNCES NEW DISTRIBUTION
AGREEMENT WITH NIKON OPTICAL USA INC.

Northvale, NJ – (November 28, 2005) – Nassau Vision Group is pleased to announce that they have entered into a distribution agreement with Nikon Optical USA Inc. Effective November 28, 2005, Nassau Vision Group will distribute Nikon lens products through their New Jersey distribution center. In the following months, this product line will be rolled out gradually to other Nassau Vision Group branches throughout the country.

“I'm very pleased that Nassau was selected to bring this technology to the eyecare community. Nikon lenses will improve visual perception for the consumer and we at Nassau are proud to be part of this project,” said Michael Pildes, president of Nassau Vision Group.

The new premium product line is comprised of finished single vision lenses in 1.50, 1.67, as well as the premier 1.74 lens. The lenses come standard with Nikon’s two-sided, scratch resistant, easy-to-clean, anti-reflective coating. The easy-to-clean coating keeps fingerprints, facial oils and smudges off the surface of the lens. The new Nikon single-vision line also includes a polycarbonate aspheric, hard-coated version.

Nassau Vision Group plans to announce this new range of lenses at a launch party November 28th in New York City.

“Nikon Optical USA is looking forward to working with the Nassau group, renowned for their service and market coverage,” said Kazuhiro Hasegawa, president and CEO of Nikon-Essilor group.
