Quad-C Management Completes Sale of PRISM Vision to McKesson

On April 8, 2025, Quad-C Management, Inc., a prominent player in the middle market private equity realm, announced the completion of its sale of PRISM Vision Holdings, LLC to McKesson Corporation. This strategic transition marks a significant move for both companies, with the potential to enhance ophthalmic care services across various regions.

PRISM Vision is a dedicated provider specializing in general ophthalmology and retina management services, operating with over 180 qualified providers and encompassing 91 office locations and seven ambulatory surgery centers. The company has established a reputable track record, characterized by its solid value proposition for physicians and its commitment to delivering top-tier eye care.

He commented, “It has been a pleasure to collaborate with the PRISM Vision team, and we are extremely pleased to announce this successful exit to McKesson. Our value creation strategy was centered on driving growth through significant investments in technology and infrastructure, along with the recruitment of skilled professionals and strategic partnerships. Throughout our collaboration, PRISM remained dedicated to its mission of expanding patient access to exceptional eye care.”

This commitment to expansion is underpinned by PRISM Vision's strong leadership team and their innovative clinical research capabilities, which are focused on enhancing the overall provider experience. Dr. Steven Madreperla, CEO of PRISM Vision, expressed gratitude towards Quad-C for their invaluable support and strategic guidance during the partnership. He stated, “We are thankful for Quad-C's support and guidance, which has been pivotal in generating value for us. Their assistance in building a talented team, creating robust infrastructure, and leveraging capital was instrumental as we developed our eye care delivery platform while remaining focused on our core mission to provide the highest level of care.”

Looking ahead, PRISM Vision plans to continue its journey in partnership with McKesson Corporation, focusing on care delivery excellence, value creation, and sustained growth. The transition is expected not only to benefit the organizations involved but also to enhance patient care through improved access to quality health services.
