Eye Care Associates Introduces Carolina Blue Ray-Ban Wayfarers

Raleigh, NC, April 04, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Dr. Stephen Bolick, founder & CEO of Eye Care Associates, a locally owned and operated multi-site optometric practice, has announced that the classic sunglass look of Ray-Ban Wayfarer is now available in “Carolina Blue” - a first of its kind. The sunglasses are available exclusively at any of Eye Care Associates 17 offices located throughout the Triangle, the Sandhills and in Wilmington.

The special release of the limited edition Carolina Blue Wayfarers comes as part of an agreement with Luxottica, the Italian eyewear manufacturer Ray-Ban. Eye Care Associates requested the line of Wayfarers in support of their status as a Preferred Eye Care Provider for Carolina Athletics. These sunglasses will ensure the eyes of Carolina fans will be protected when they watch and celebrate sporting events outdoors.

Eye Care Associates’ doctors also note the Carolina Blue Wayfarers while unique are not a promotional item but high quality sunglasses, which provide needed protection for the wearers’ eyes. Eyes regularly exposed to too much sun can develop serious and sometimes permanent damage. Eye doctors recommend wearing UV blocking sunglasses in order to avoid age related eye diseases. Sunglasses protect the delicate skin around the eye area from premature signs of aging due to UV rays and sun damage.

“As a Carolina alum with two children at UNC, I am excited to introduce the world’s first Carolina Blue Ray-Ban sunglasses during March Madness,” said Dr. Bolick. “They offer Carolina fans another way to show their spirit during the NCAA tournament and will provide eye protection for them when they attend other outside sporting events. It is a classic look that has real protection as well.”
