Dear Valued Customer,
As we embark on another New Year, 2005, I can't help but think back on the year that was, and look forward with optimism to the opportunities that lie ahead. We appreciate and thank you for the support and loyalty you have shown ODG over the last year and a half. This has catapulted us to a leadership position in the distribution of ophthalmic products.
ODG remains committed to providing "more than just product" in order to help you meet today's challenges, such as addressing your patient's desire to purchase replacement contact lenses more conveniently. When you visit www.opticaldg.com you can place orders 24/7, view money saving promotions, easily convert your practice's "information only" website to a revenue producer, and at no cost to you create a custom webstore to successfully compete with mail order.
In the past few years, the soft contact lens market experienced moderate revenue growth despite nearly three million new wearers. A new generation of Silicone Hydrogel lenses with significantly improved oxygen transmissibility and better hydration will meet your patients' needs for all day comfort. Fitting patients in these lenses should produce double-digit growth in your contact lens practice. That's why we now have in stock these new soft contact lenses ready for next day delivery to you or your patient.
We are looking forward to an exciting 2005. Throughout the year, we will continue to introduce programs and products to help you better compete, assist you in keeping your patients happy, help improve your practice's bottom line and grow our business partnership with you. We appreciate the opportunity to earn your business each and every day. Thanks again for making us your eye care partner.
Lastly, let me wish each of you from our family at ODG, to you and your families, a Happy and Healthy New Year.
Respectfully yours,
Jeffrey I. Rems
President
Optical Distributor Group
