Luxottica Data Breach Settlement: $250K

Patients in the United States who:

• Scheduled an appointment with a Luxottica-owned or affiliated eye care practice on or before Aug. 5, 2020.
• Were impacted by the August 2020 data breach.

Documentation required for reimbursement claims includes:

• Receipts
• Bank statements
• Other evidence of out-of-pocket losses

Luxottica, a global eyewear retailer and owner of brands like Ray-Ban, Oakley, and Pearle Vision, has agreed to pay $250,000 to resolve claims related to a 2020 data breach that compromised sensitive consumer information.

Plaintiffs allege that Luxottica failed to implement adequate cybersecurity measures to prevent a cyberattack in August 2020. The breach reportedly exposed Social Security numbers, financial data, and health information of patients who scheduled appointments at Luxottica-owned or affiliated eye care practices.

Luxottica denies wrongdoing but has agreed to the settlement to resolve these allegations.
