Consumers Prefer Evening and Weekend Hours

The survey, commissioned by EyeMed Vision Care, one of the nation’s leading vision benefits companies, found that while 60 percent of respondents indicated they prefer to access vision care services on regular weekdays before 6 p.m., nearly 25 percent of respondents prefer to access vision care on Saturdays at eye care/optical locations with all-day hours. Another 12 percent prefer weekday evenings after 6 p.m., and 4 percent prefer Sundays. In the poll*, conducted by EMI – Online Research Solutions, corrective-lens wearing consumers were asked, “What is your preferred time of day to shop for and purchase your vision correction (services)?”
