Baseball Legend Johnny Bench Endorses New Eyeglass eStore OpDocs

Sept. 16, 2011 - PRLog -- Baseball legend Johnny Bench will be promoting the new eStore being launched by OpDocs (OpDocs.com), an online fashion eyewear glasses retailer recently started by three practicing optometrists. In the midst of a busy public speaking and mentoring schedule, Bench has served as a mentor to the University of Cincinnati baseball team. Bench has taken a great interest in the team; he recently included them as part of a study of the benefits of High Performance Vision Training, an approach to improving visual perception that increased the team’s batting average by 34 points in a single year.

OpDocs represents the “vision” of three optometrists, including the University of Cincinnati’s own Dr. Jim Ellis. A member of the university staff for 33 years, Dr. Ellis has conducted research in the Department of Neurology in the College of Medicine, lectured to residents, fellows and students on the subject of ocular trauma, worked as a vision specialist in the university medical center, and served as a member of the sports medicine staff in the university’s athletics department.

The OpDocs eStore offers a wide variety of frames for every prescription and budget, with features that make ordering and shipping a snap, all backed by a caring optical team whose experience is unmatched. “My colleagues and I are deeply honored to have an athlete of Johnny Bench’s enduring stature lend his reputation to our eStore,” Dr. Ellis said. “We hope it will encourage anyone searching for the premier eyewear shopping experience to give OpDocs a look.”
