EyeRock Concert at BB King Blues Club

More than 20 of the optical industry’s best rock musicians and singers will take the stage at BB King Blues Club in New York City for the third annual EyeRock on Saturday, March 20. The concert will benefit OneSight, a Luxottica Group Foundation that delivers free vision care and eyewear to underprivileged individuals around the world.

Converse and John Varvatos by REM Eyewear is EyeRock’s presenting sponsor. Mike Hundert, CEO of REM Eyewear said this concert is one-of-a kind. “This is the coolest, most fun event our industry puts together each year. We’re thrilled to support it and the wonderful good that comes from its success.” The official media sponsor of the event is Jobson Optical Group.

EyeRock sponsorship is a perfect way for companies to showcase their support for OneSight while providing great add-on entertainment in mid-town Manhattan for clients attending Vision Expo East, according to concert organizers. Sponsors receive many benefits, including complimentary tickets.

“EyeRock is constantly evolving. Each year we see new faces from the optical industry that perform and sponsor,” said Greg Hare, executive director of OneSight. “We are so pleased this event continues to gain momentum each year.”

Tickets for the event will be available starting Feb. 1. For more information about EyeRock New York or to become a sponsor, visit www.onesight.org.
