“We understand that our previous company name, Opternative, carried a negative connotation in the eye care industry and positioned the brand as an existential threat to Optometrists,” said Dr. Steven Lee, Founder and Chief Science Officer of Visibly. “This is why it was important for us to rebrand the company with a name that better represents the partnerships we’re building with eye care providers and eyewear retailers in the industry.”

The company involved many key stakeholders in the decision-making process for its new name through interviews with board members, industry experts, doctors, investors, and internal employees to ensure the new name, Visibly, reflects the audience the company serves today and plans to serve in the future.
