Accessorizes Boomers’ Eyes
New
York (March 5, 2007) — Reading glasses
are the new essential fashion accessory and
the market is massive according to VisAcuity.com
LLC spokesman Mark Levit
Presbyopia,
a non-preventable condition affecting people
over 40 now affects 80 million Baby Boomers
in America. Presbyopia is a condition in which
the elasticity of the eye naturally decreases
causing close up vision to be blurred, often
requiring the use of reading glasses.
“Most
Baby Boomers don’t wish to wear the bland
styles of reading glasses their parents wore.
They are style and quality conscious,”
said Levit. “Boomers view reading glasses
as an opportunity to express their individual
personalities and moods.” Many Baby Boomers
purchase multiple pairs at the same time for
different occasions, outfits, and even to have
extra pairs handy in every room of the house.
Levit
continued, “As a retailer and distributor
of designer reading glasses, VisAcuity.com advises
customers to consider quality first. Aspheric
lenses, for example, render less visual distortion
than traditional lenses. Lenses manufactured
from polycarbonate deliver still clearer vision.”
Frame
construction is important too. A quality plastic
frame made of laminated acetate or Zyl is durable
and will maintain its color. Metal frames should
be made from substances such as nickel-free
Monel which is hypoallergenic. Those are what
is referred to as “optical quality frames.”
“Reading
glasses can be stylish and fun and are no longer
a symbol of aging. They’re an essential
addition to every Baby Boomer’s wardrobe,”
concluded Levit.
