To celebrate the Vision Council’s National Sunglasses Day on June 27, Essilor of America is hosting its second annual “Show Us Your Shades” employee campaign to spread awareness about the importance of wearing sunglasses.
“At Essilor of America, we believe in living our mission of improving lives by improving sight, and that starts with our employees,” Holly Gillentine, vice president of corporate communications and employee engagement at Essilor of America, said in a company press release.
Essilor’s campaign gives employees the chance to win a pair of Xperio UV polarized sun lenses with a frame of their choice just by posting a picture of themselves wearing sunglasses, according to the release.
Essilor said they have shared nearly 300 photos of employees, their family members and pets wearing sunglasses and protecting their eyes from harmful UV rays.
“This campaign is a fun and easy way for employees to help share the message of protecting our eyes,” Gillentine said.
