Overview

What is .vision

The word vision means sight, and also vision in the sense of ambition and a view of the future. .vision entered the internet’s root in 2014 and is run by Binky Moon, LLC. Many people know the word from the phrase “vision and mission” in how companies and organizations introduce themselves.

.vision suits opticians, eye clinics and eye-test centers, and also startups and initiatives that want to say they look further ahead. At nazarat-doha.vision, visitors know they’ve found an optician in Doha to test their eyes and pick their frames.

With us its price is fixed for the first year and every renewal. The word is general, so without a clear name before it visitors are left wondering what it means: is it a clinic, a shop or a company’s slogan? If your customers are in Qatar, put your city’s name before it, which settles the meaning and tells them where to find you.
