Focus Point Holdings Berhad, Malaysia’s leading optical retail chain, proudly celebrated the grand opening of its 200th optical store, a significant milestone that reflects over three decades of continuous growth, innovation, and commitment to eye health for all Malaysians.
The ceremony was officiated by YBhg. Dato Sri Suriani binti Dato Ahmad, Chairman of Focus Point Holdings Berhad and Secretary General of the Ministry of Health.
The momentous milestone comes just ahead of Focus Point’s 36th anniversary, underscoring the brand’s enduring legacy and its forward-looking vision to transform the vision care landscape across the country.
“Reaching 200 outlets is more than a number. It’s a testament to the dedication, resilience, and trust that we’ve built with the communities we serve,” said Dato’ Liaw Choon Liang, President and CEO of Focus Point Holdings Berhad. “This milestone reaffirms our mission to make professional eye care more accessible, more advanced, and more impactful – especially as we continue to educate the public on the importance of regular eye screenings and address rising issues like myopia.”
Driving Vision, Empowering Communities
From a single store in Muar in 1989 to becoming the largest optical retail chain in Malaysia, Focus Point has grown into a trusted household name for vision care, innovation, and service excellence. The expansion to 200 outlets across urban and suburban areas demonstrates the brand’s commitment to nationwide eye health accessibility, job creation, and support for local entrepreneurship through its franchise model.
The celebration also highlighted the group’s ongoing investment in vision care and eye health awareness, particularly in myopia management for children, a growing concern globally due to increasing digital device usage and lifestyle changes.
“Preventable blindness and uncorrected vision issues remain a major public health challenge,” said YBhg. Dato Sri Suriani. “Focus Point actively working to bridge the gap especially through outreach programmes, AI-advanced screenings, and professional optometry support perfectly aligns with the Ministry of Health’s goals in promoting early detection and equitable access to vision care.”
Vision with a Purpose: Giving Back to the Community
In conjunction with this 200th outlet celebration, Focus Point has partnered with Great Heart Charity Association, an NGO dedicated to serving underprivileged communities. As part of the initiative, Focus Point is sponsoring 200 pairs of prescription eyewear to individuals in need, underscoring its belief that clear vision is a basic right, not a privilege.
This initiative builds on the work of the Focus Point Caring Hearts Charity Foundation, which has touched thousands of lives through free screenings, community outreach events, and educational campaigns across Malaysia since its establishment.
Innovating the Future of Vision Care
Focus Point is not only looking back with pride, it is looking forward with purpose. As part of its ongoing evolution, the company is:
- Rolling out the 360° Advanced Primary Eye Care (APEC) Roadshow, which is currently ongoing at IOI Mall Damansara, and will head to IOI City Mall by the end of May. There are more roadshows lined up for the remaining of the year.
- Launching the Focus Point Loyalty Programme, a CRM-powered web-based platform designed to reward and retain loyal customers through exclusive benefits, promotions, and experience.
These innovations reflect Focus Point’s commitment to combining technology, service excellence, and social responsibility in every aspect of its business.
