ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS.

        On December 27, 2000, U.S. Vision, Inc. entered into a non-binding
letter of intent to be acquired by a group of stockholders consisting of George
E. Norcross, III, Joseph J. Roberts, Jr., and Philip A. Norcross. A copy of the
press release announcing that the letter of intent had been signed and the
letter of intent are attached hereto as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2, respectively.

        On December 27, 2000, when the press release was issued, no
representative of the general partner of Stolberg Partners, L.P. (the beneficial
owner of approximately 19% of the outstanding common stock of the Company) was
available to sign the letter of intent. Accordingly, the press release only
refers to owners of approximately 59% of the outstanding common stock of the
Company having indicated that they approved of and agreed to vote in favor of
the transaction. After the press release was issued, a representative of the
general partner of Stolberg Partners, L.P. signed the letter of intent, to be
effective as of December 27, 2000, thereby increasing the percentage of
outstanding common stock held by stockholders of the Company who indicated that
they approved of and agreed to vote in favor of the transaction to 78%.
