In this article, we mention different ways to recycle glasses , from simple donation to consignment, including material recycling . Many companies have started, and as we are nice, we give them to you here:

Anti-fatigue and anti-blue light glasses and lenses, a field that fascinates!

Our second article gives pride of place to companies that have launched into the production of lenses with an anti-blue light filter . These lenses, while remaining flexible, have a selective blue light blocking filter , and filter UVA and UVB rays . They also have the ability to prevent AMD .

The article that completes the podium also tells us about technology to block blue light. It makes the difference with another type of protective glasses, rest lenses .

These are suitable for people between 20 and 45 years old who suffer from headaches, fatigue or even decreasing vision after a certain time spent reading or working with precision: not necessarily in front of a screen!

Worn occasionally, they are aspherical and have a slight correction (or additional correction) on the lower part of the lens (like progressive lenses). This thus limits visual efforts and minimizes visual fatigue.

A dossier on the eye and art to close this eclectic top

Finally, our dossier on the eye and art was very successful! Going back to the first men and passing through ancient Egypt, this file shows us that, from time immemorial , the eye has fascinated.

eye-and-art

This is also always the case since in contemporary art , and especially in modern literature and cinema, the latter is very often put forward. This is the case for many works that have crossed the decades, such as 1984, or the films of Hitchcock and Sergio Leone.

In any case, this top confirms our desire to continue to provide you with quality content around the optical sector which, definitely, has not finished saying its last word!

If the design is fanciful, the colors are not to be outdone: shiny metallic frames , gold, silver, pink are already emulating.

Minimalism, yes but …

If this year again, the trend is still for thin and discreet frames, we always allow ourselves a few touches of eccentricity, especially for models dedicated to a female audience.

Thanks to often remarkable finishes, keys with tortoise and tortoise patterns are already very popular. But be careful to keep colors soft and a certain harmony between them. On the contrary, we will ignore the transparent models a little more, very fashionable in previous years.

In terms of volume, the oversized is, unlike the male models, also very popular to strengthen the look and affirm the personality.

The eco-friendly trend always on top!

More than ever, materials that respect the environment , offer a guarantee of sustainability or come from recycling are particularly popular, especially when they are on top of the look!

We will have to continue to count with frames made with recycled wood (taken from scraps), shells, hemp or algae and even jeans …

Be careful, however, to find out about the origin of the materials , because who says original does not necessarily mean green!
