CINCINNATI--The Thoma & Sutton Eye Care Professionals chain, based here, has taken over three stores in the greater Cleveland market formerly operated by Sight Resource as E.B. Brown Opticians locations.

The three stores--in Rocky River, Solon and Cleveland Heights, Ohio--are now open under the Thoma & Sutton name.

In addition to carrying eyewear, each store offers hearing products and services as well, through the company’s Hearing by Thoma & Sutton division.

The three new units bring the chain’s store total to 20, according to chief executive officer Lance Snarr.
