OcuSource Announces Magnifier Giveaway Sweepstakes Event
OcuSource.com, LLC announces its online Magnifier Giveaway Sweepstakes to aid those with macular degeneration and other disorders causing vision loss. Drawing is to be held February 14th, 2005.
(PRWEB) December 29, 2004 -- OcuSource.com, LLC, owner and operator of the
vision impairment industry portal www.ocusource.com, launched its Winter Giveaway Sweepstakes.
The winners select from a variety of magnifiers produced by the event sponsors.
Sweepstakes registration runs through February 13, 2005 and the drawing for all
prizes will be held on February 14, 2005.
“Thanks to the generous
sponsorship of Carl Zeiss, Enhanced Vision, MagniSight, Pulse Data, and our
corporate sponsor, Meds4Mail, this will be a very special event,” stated Dr. Lou
Lipschultz, President of OcuSource.com. “We’re bringing some fun to the
not-so-pleasant subject of vision loss. Our goal is to raise awareness of the
many resources available from OcuSource and its sponsors,” stated Lipschultz.
“For many individuals, the cost of devices designed to help those suffering from
vision loss can be prohibitive. We hope that agencies, senior organizations, and
individuals will spread the word about our magnifier giveaway. Of course, we
always recommend obtaining a thorough low vision evaluation from an eye care
professional to identify the exact device for the particular individual,”
Lipschultz commented.
