Comprehensive Care Corporation Signs Strategic Service Agreement with Eye Care International.

TAMPA, Fla. -- Comprehensive Care Corporation (OTCBB:CHCR) and Eye Care International, Inc. (OTCBB:EYCI) announced the signing of a strategic service agreement providing, in part, for the purchase by CompCare of 125,000 Eye Care International vision plans and the option of purchasing an additional 875,000 vision plans for future use by CompCare in conjunction with its managed behavioral healthcare business.

According to Mary Jane Johnson, President and CEO of CompCare, "Industry experts have identified early detection of vision irregularities as significant factors in school and home behaviors. As a result, we believe our clients can add value to the healthcare of their members by taking preventive measures that can impact their behavioral well being. With over 50% of our members being children, CompCare made a concerted effort to identify a single source program that could provide its clients with a method for early detection and management of vision problems, which, if undetected, could lead to low self-esteem and depression. We believe Eye Care International offers a vision program that, in a cost-effective manner, can accommodate our clients' needs. The plan provides one family member with an efficient, no-cost eye screening and a national network of eye care professionals to service the entire family (both children and adults) to quickly treat those at risk. In addition, the plan provides for discounted vision products available for purchase by the entire family. For these reasons, we have purchased 125,000 vision plans from Eye Care International with an option to purchase 875,000 additional plans. To our knowledge, we are the only company of our kind offering this form of early detection within our market segment."

Clark A. Marcus, Eye Care International's Chairman and CEO said, "We are pleased to have entered into this relationship with Comprehensive Care Corporation. CompCare's business is heavily weighted towards children, an age category that eye care services can have a dramatic impact upon. Eye Care International's vision plan will allow CompCare to offer its clients a leading edge product for the early detection of vision disorders."
