Reading Glasses
Sunglasses
"FAÇADE"
Function, Style, and Quality
As long as I could remember, I always had a passion for design and innovation.
The idea for convenient reading glasses came to my mind one day when I was tired of hunting for my prescription reading glasses. By wearing a granny chain, the eyewear becomes more accessible but the chain makes most baby boomers look outdated. In addition, the hinge screws often become loose. I decided to design ready-to-wear reading glasses that are made in one-piece without hinges and will stay on top of the head or around the neck, ready for use. Utility Patent in 2008 and 2 Design Patents in 2009 and 2012 were granted for the idea.
Producing a quality, brand-new product from an idea and making it affordable took years of painstaking research, development, and negotiation, but my inspiration to create the handy and stylish reading glasses and the encouragement from supporters helped me stay on course. This eyewear is not intended to replace prescription reading glasses, but I hope you will find it a great improvement over the traditional eyewear currently on the market.
