Neil Gailmard, OD, MBA, FAAO President and COO, Prima Eye Group 2625 Cumberland Pkwy, Atlanta, GA Telephone: (800) ngailmard@primaeyegroup.com E commerce has been a game changer for many industries, but what will the impact be on optical dispensing?

If we matched the low prices, we could retain the vast majority of sales. There is no other benefit and there is much downside. c. We can be somewhat higher in price the market will dictate. 4
