Visionworks of America was once a subsidiary of HVHC, a Highmark Inc. company.[4] Visionwork's former parent company, ECCA Holdings Corp., merged with Pittsburgh-based HVHC in 2006, resulting in Eye Care Centers of America Inc. becoming a wholly owned Highmark subsidiary. [5] ECCA had 385 stores, in 36 states, at that time.[5]

All stores sell frames, lenses, sunglasses, and accessories. Comprehensive service offerings include contact lens dispensing, free adjustments and repairs, and doctors of optometry at or next to every store. Visionworks also sells contact lenses online.[3]

On June 27, 2019, VSP Global announced plans to acquire Visionworks.[6] The acquisition was completed on October 1, 2019.[7]
