MASON, Ohio, Aug 16, 2012 -- EyeMed Vision Care’s customer call center has earned its third straight "Certified Center of Excellence" designation from BenchmarkPortal.

EyeMed is a vision benefits companies and part of Luxottica (NYSE: LUX), a provider in vision care and eyewear.
BenchmarkPortal, the nation’s Center for Customer-Driven Quality™, is internationally recognized as a research and education organization for customer access issues. The Center of Excellence recognition is one of the most prestigious honors in the customer support industry, and is awarded to call centers that rank in the top ten percent of call centers surveyed.
