"Mr. Fahs served as Managing Director of Vision Express UK and Ireland, a retail vision chain with over 100 superstores and annual revenues of approximately $200 million. Before Vision Express, Mr. Fahs spent a decade with Lenscrafters, where he led the Advertising, Strategy, and New Product Development functions."
