Essilor Awarded Good Housekeeping Seal for Second Year

For the second year in a row, Essilor of America, the nation’s leading manufacturer of optical lenses, has earned the Good Housekeeping Seal for the entire Crizal No-Glare lens product portfolio. Evaluated by the Good Housekeeping Research Institute, the Seal emblem offers additional credibility to the performance of the Crizal brand.

“Receiving the Good Housekeeping Seal for a second year in a row is a testament to Essilor’s ambition to excel as an industry innovator, providing products that meet and exceed patients’ visual needs,” says Lauri Crawford, senior vice-president of marketing, Essilor of America. “We’re proud to be recognized with such an honor that brings patients an even greater awareness of the high quality of Crizal lenses and provides eyecare professionals with confidence that they are recommending the best products for their patients’ vision.”

The Good Housekeeping Seal has been reassuring consumers about their product-purchasing decisions for more than 100 years, and research has shown an impact of the Seal on consumer buying behaviors:

• 9 out of 10 consumers are aware of the Seal
• 89 percent would feel more comfortable buying a product they are unfamiliar with if it has the Seal
• 89 percent are more likely to trust a product and its advertising if it displays the Seal
