Myopic, hypermetropic, astigmatism and any other sort of eye defect, from polar to non-polar to sunglasses , photochromic and lens combined. You have all combinations possible today.

Not very long ago, perhaps the time I got glasses, nearly 7 years ago, spectacles were not very trendy or considered to be a ‘good’ sign of health. (In India).

With celebrities promoting ‘types and styles’ of glasses and frames, and increasing branding and online retailing, it has become a necessity – more than just fashion. Duck down your specs and stare from the top, classy – ain’t it?

 

Yes! Smarty!
