About Our Company

AEG Vision (or AEG) is building a market-leading group of full-scope optometry practices through the acquisition of regional eyecare groups and independent optometry practices.  Founded in 2017, AEG currently owns and operates ~170 optical locations across 12 states, with a vision to exceed 300 locations within the next couple of years.  AEG is supported by Riata Capital Group, a private equity firm with a track record of success in the optical industry.

We are building AEG by acquiring a collection of full-scope optometry practices and integrating them onto Acuitys platform, supported by its corporate headquarters (the Dallas Service Center).  AEG maintains the local brand, practice staff, store associates, and patients of its acquisitions while investing in medical equipment, technology, infrastructure, and the team in order to elevate the patient experience.  AEGs core purpose is to improve the health of our community by helping our neighbors see better and look their best, one patient at a time.

We are assembling a team of experienced industry professionals to help build AEG into the best place to work and have an outstanding patient experience.

We believe that to stand out and be number one, we must follow a set of guiding values. Our values include:
