IOWA CITY, Iowa, June 01, 2017 -- McDonald Optical is celebrating 61 years in business with a large sale, a designer eyewear trunk show, and plenty of excitement. Iowa City residents who wear glasses are in for a big savings discount. Patrons will receive 30% off complete pairs of prescription and non-prescription glasses and sunglasses from June 6 - 12, 2017.
Patients are encouraged to have their prescription updated if it’s been a year or longer since their last exam, but eyewear and sunglasses are available to those with no need for vision correction as well. McDonald Optical provides eye exams in addition to their full suite of Iowa City optometry, optical, and eye care services.
Opened in 1956 by Al McDonald, the optometry center has helped countless generations of Iowa City residents with all of their vision needs.
Reid McDonald, Al’s grandson and third-generation owner of the practice, couldn’t be more thrilled. “We have a long legacy of helping people in our community with their sight needs,” he explains. “Sixty-one years is a really long time. And we really just want to pass our gratitude on to those who helped get us here.”
There will also be a trunk show with the latest eyewear trends from ProDesign. The Danish fashion-forward company is known for its comfortable and lightweight frames for men, women, and children.
“There will be just about something for everyone,” says Annette Nickel, O.D. “We are quite excited to have them on hand for the celebration.”
“Many of our patients are big fans of the ProDesign brand,” continues Matthew Houck, O.D. “They are quite comfortable and it really made sense for us to have the company join us in our celebration event. It is just another way for us to offer our patients high-quality eyewear designs.”
The sale happens from June 6th to June 12th and regular optometry appointments will be available with both eye doctors. The ProDesign trunk show takes place from 2:00 PM to 7:00 PM on Thursday, June 8th at the Sycamore location and from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM on Friday, June 9th at the downtown location.
