Some extraordinary technology is coming to The Eye Bar in a few months! If you have had troubles adapting to progressive or bifocal lenses in the past or want to try the cutting edge of progressive lenses, then you have to take a look at eMpower lenses from Pixel Optics.

eMpower! is the world's first electronic focusing eyewear.   It puts control of the visual experience back in your hands.  eMPower! lets you have the lens power you want, when you want it. At the touch of a finger, you can turn the full reading power on and off as you need it.

If you wear eyeglasses, seeing clearly is important. Since eyeglasses -- especially prescription eyeglasses -- can be expensive, it's critical to maintain their upkeep and clean them correctly. For example, using a dry tissue to clean lenses can leave small scratches on the glass from the harsh woven fibers in the tissue or from abrasive sediment already settled on the lenses. Never ever use glass cleaner or other harsh abrasives! However, there are other tricks you can use to successfully clean dirty eyeglasses.

Nice video showing secrets of Chanel Eyewear and some of the manufacturing process.  Lots of attention to detail.  The new glitter Chanel Sunglasses are stunning!
