Current management represents the third generation in precision optics. Maternal grandfather, Fred Ferson founded Ferson Optics in the nineteen forties stemming from a hobby of amateur telescope making. That company achieved impressive growth and after more than two decades of operation it was sold to Bausch & Lomb in the late sixties. With Ferson Optics changing its strategic focus after the acquisition by BOL, PFG Precision Optics was launched almost a decade later when husband and wife, Don and Janet Green established the company together with John Plummer, founder of Plummer Precision Optics in Pennsburg, Penn.
