Younger Drivewear

In the past, clear eyewear was enough. In bright light conditions, polarized sunwear was enough. This is no longer true. Today our lives are strongly influenced by the automobile, which has changed the way we experience the outdoors. We need a third category of lenses in our modern, automobile-centered world. Drivewear.

Drivewear lenses are capable of sensing and reacting to varying light conditions both outside and behind the windshield of the car. From bright sunlight accompanied by intense, blinding glare, to overcast inclement conditions, Drivewear lenses provide the wearer with the appropriate visual solution. Drivewear lenses provide glare protection through polarization and enhance and protect vision through photochromics which respond to both visible and UV light. By combining the strengths of two of the most important technologies in eyewear today Younger has developed the lens of tomorrow, Drivewear.

Spring into Spring
(Without Springs, Screws or Hinges) With Lindberg Air Titanium!

In the early 1980s Danish optometrist Poul-Jorn Lindberg needed spectacles and soon recognized the many shortcomings of the mass produced frames available at that time.  He teamed up with architect Hans Dissing, and they conceived a completely different frame building system: Air Titanium, which revolutionized the eyewear industry! Their goal was to create a spectacle frame that was more simple, attractive and functional.  Boy, have they succeeded! 

With frames weighing as little as 1.9 grams LINDBERG is not only stylish but amongst the lightest eyewear in the world. Each LINDBERG Air titatium frames is custom fitted, resulting in a durable, stylish, clean look.  Among the design features of the LINDBERG Air Titanium line:

• LINDBERG bends the titanium material into incredibly light frames with out screws, rivets or welds.  Key to the design is the "corkscrew" hinge pictured above.
  
  
• LINDBERG use only the highest quality hypoallergenic titanium, the same material used in pacemakers and dental fittings.  The nose pads and temple tips are made of medical grade silicone, a hypoallergenic and slide proof material for safe secure wear.
  
  
• LINDBERG's patented and prize winning frame building system makes it possible to design a unique and personal frame – suited perfectly in shape, size, and color for you.

The result?  A simple, unobtrusive construction that never distracts the attention from the face.  For more information on this Danish eyewear brand, please contact one of your friendly Weber Vision Care opticians!

Just Arrived:  The Latest Face à Face Eyewear!

Guess what just arrived from Paris! Face à Face has lots of new colors and shapes for spring 2012 and we can't wait for you to see them!

First created in 1995, Face à Face glasses grew out of a passion
for architecture shared by a small group of eyewear enthusiasts.
One of them, Pascal Jaulent, the creator of the original concept behind the collection, dreamt of giving eyewear the power to reflect the character of the person wearing it. "Face à Face was designed to reveal the sense of the modern that's in all of us." Nadine Roth, his partner, felt that nothing could reflect the look that makes each of us what we are, better than our own eyes.

Face à Face designers work with volumes, shapes, materials, colors and textures to give its glasses the power to express the personality of their wearer, whether that's bold, carefree, energetic, or independent. Each new collection is preceded by a research and design stage, resulting in new styles enhanced by innovative concepts incorporating new sensibilities

With a collection renowned for its creativity and its "Made in France" quality, Face à Face glasses are worth checking out.  And in our area,  they're available only at Weber Vision Care!

Eye Exams for Infants??  
Are your students succeeding in school?  Whether it's nursery school, high school, or grad school, great vision will be essential to your student's success!  But did you know that we also recommend eye exams for infants?  They're important because early identification of a child’s vision problem is key; children often are more responsive to treatment when problems are diagnosed early.  So, we recommend that infants should have their first comprehensive eye exam at 6 months of age. Children then should have additional eye exams at age 3, and just before they enter the first grade — at about age 5 or 6.  Click here for more information.
