Eyespace
Eyespace launched its Rockstar Smart-fit collection aimed at children to teens (five to 15-year-olds), featuring a smart-fit frame constructed in line with new industry guidelines and informed by the company’s extensive R&D into correct paediatric frame fitting.
This research concluded many children’s frames are designed around trends and mimic popular adult designs, rather than focusing on appropriate fit. The designs of these Rock Star releases ensure correct fitting based on how a child’s facial features age and the dimensions suitable for myopic management lenses. This includes dropped bridges to sit comfortably on young faces, 180 degree hinges for extra durability and optional silicon nose pads on selected frames to accommodate both high and low nose bridges.
The Sonny style (right) is popular with boys as colours reflect the Xbox console brand’s black and neon green, with an injected neon core wire highlighted by transparent, black lined acetate in the temples, as well as two other colourways. The Doja style shows off crystal acetate in varying shades of pink with silver core wire detailing and the signature Rockstar logo on the temple tip. Mean-while, the Sabrina style has more vibrant colour combinations, including a crystal transparent frame and rainbow temples.
