About Company
National Vision (NVI) was founded in 1990 to operate Vision Centers for Walmart. In 2005, Berkshire Partners acquired NVI as well as America's Best Contacts & Eyeglasses and simultaneously merged the two companies. At the time of acquisition, America's Best had just 112 stores.
In January 2009, NVI acquired Eyeglass World and successfully turned around the retailer through a completely new merchandising and marketing strategy.
In 2011, NVI acquired long-time partner, AC Lens, which is now one of the largest online contact lens providers in the United States.
Today, National Vision remains focused on making quality eye care and eyewear more affordable and accessible as we continue to expand across the country.
