Like many other areas of fashion, eyewear trends and technology have changed drastically throughout the years. These days, they're more than just an accessory. With endless combinations of frame designs, materials, lenses and coatings, glasses can become an extension of ourselves. To highlight these changes, here's a blog outlining the history of eyewear and how it has changed.

There's more to glasses than meets the eye and the process that goes into creating them may surprise you. In this blog, we'll give you a quick overview of the journey of how your glasses are made.

These metal frames are perfect for those who find their style and like to stick to it. They can stand up to the strains of modern life without losing their quality and are less likely to fade when exposed to sunlight. Most metal frames are made of stainless steel or Titanium. These metals are ideal as they are strong and lightweight. Titanium
