New York, NY (Vocus/PRWEB) December 22, 2010

How many times a day do you hear the phrase “take care”? Sadly, it’s become a kind of throwaway, a mostly meaningless expression. But the truth is, we really do need to take care -- of ourselves, our families and our friends. In November, “The Dr. Oz Show” featured EyeBuyDirect. com, the leading online destination for stylish, yet affordable prescription eyeglasses, in its segment: “Insider Guide to Getting the Best for the Least.”

“We’re thrilled to be recognized by renowned health expert and talk show host Dr. Oz,” said Roy Hessel, CEO of EyeBuyDirect. com. “At a time when the economy is sinking deeper and deeper into debt and the nation’s health is ballooning out of control, it’s more important than ever to provide Americans with cost-saving alternatives to traditional healthcare. And EyeBuyDirect. com responds to that need in a way that’s smart, easy-to-use and rewarding.”

Ranking #3 out of 5 cost-saving secrets from the doctors’ office, the doctor-approved website was recognized for its impressive selection of stylish, high-quality prescription eyeglasses at prices as low as $7.95. Hessel continues, “Whether you’re a career woman juggling the demands of family and career, a Wall Street executive who’s recently been laid off, or a young college student who doesn’t want to sacrifice style and quality for a low price, EyeBuyDirect. com has something for everyone.”

Adding interactivity and social engagement to the online shopping experience, EyeBuyDirect. com creates a personal, customized experience for its social network of more than 20,000 members.
