“Our collaboration with Hoya Vision Care is a great opportunity for us to provide more ECPs with seamless eye care solutions and to support them in achieving greater patient satisfaction and enhancing patients’ quality of life,” Motoki Ozawa, President and CEO of Nidek, said in a company news release. “Since Nidek was established we have continually developed a range of products for providing the joy of vision to people worldwide. This collaboration allows us to deliver our products with their high performing lenses, which offer complete patient care and directly lead to the patients’ joy of vision.”

The agreement is effective immediately.
