With the exception of Stanton Optical in Bossier City, LA, all other store openings are My Eyelab franchises. The launch of these locations falls right in line with Now Optics' vision of modernizing the eye care experience for all, bringing accessible and affordable eye care to their communities.

"The Stanton Optical and My Eyelab team of professionals are happy to be able to provide high-quality eye care services and eyewear products to the families and communities in these new locations," said Daniel Stanton, CEO of Now Optics, the parent company of Stanton Optical and My Eyelab. "We look forward to bringing vision clarity to those that need it, as well as creating new jobs in the communities our stores serve."

Under the leadership of founder and CEO Daniel Stanton, My Eyelab and Stanton Optical have led the optical industry in ocular telehealth by leveraging proprietary innovative telehealth technology to provide patients with affordable quality eye exams. Tapping into its national network of affiliated doctors, to date the company has conducted more than 2 million telehealth eye exams, something no other optical retailer can offer in Georgia, Louisiana, and Texas. Moreover, the COVID-19 pandemic has not hindered My Eyelab and Stanton Optical's success, as its telehealth technology minimizes the risk without compromising quality eye care.

Most Stanton Optical stores offer same day service. You can get an eye exam and your single vision glasses all made the same day due to onsite labs. For convenience, My Eyelab and Stanton Optical offer same day eye exams and walk-ins. They accept most insurance and offer Buy now pay later options, and even without insurance eye exams are free with the purchase of eyeglasses. On top of that, an assortment of over 1,000 eyeglass frames and top contact lens brands to fit both style and budgets allows consumers the ultimate freedom to experiment with unique, stylish designs that fit their personal style.
