FORT WASHINGTON, PA, Nov 18, 1999 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Vision Care's

on the publisher's web site, www.optistock.com.
Investments In Sight is a twenty-page section that opens with a

growth of the vision industry and allowing it to compete more
effectively for investors' attention with other high-profile
industries. The article is followed by sixteen Corporate Profiles from

company's market position, products and/or technologies, and explains
how the company is positioning itself to capitalize upon market
dynamics to achieve growth and build shareholder value.
