“At Revision, we’re in the business of protecting America's heroes, a job that we perform with the utmost pride and dedication,” said Jonathan Blanshay, CEO of Revision Eyewear. “We don’t thank our troops nearly often enough for the sacrifices they’ve made on all our behalf. We very much look forward to paying tribute to their service at this year’s Open House while celebrating a year of growth and new employment at Revision. Globally, we now employ over 200 dedicated staff.”
Revision moved to the State of Vermont in September 2004 and quickly outgrew its original Williston location. In August 2007, Revision relocated to its current Essex Junction headquarters and has since expanded the size of its facility twice. Occupying an original 28,500 square feet, Revision’s operational and manufacturing hub now inhabits 53,000 square feet of space and employs over 160 Vermonters. Their premises house the most technically advanced equipment in the industry, with molding and coating machines capable of producing millions of lenses annually, as well as research, materials and quality control testing laboratories, all staffed by technical experts.
