Not sure about sexy, but I love the idea. Price point isn't bad either. If needed, I could probably put their RX in them also.

HUH?? is this something new companies are doing?I've never hear of such a thing.How does this work?Does this imply that if you don't make a claim within 90 days they will extend it to a lifetime warranty?Or is it 1 of those deals where you have to give up your info so they can market to you for the next 20 years?
in either case I hate these type warranties because you pay shipping both ways.jmo
Never forget that a pince nez is the worst optical solution for glasses .............
Never forget that a pince nez is the worst optical solution for glasses and good optics.
They will never sit on the nose in a proper horizontal line creating prismatic effects, off axis cylinders and never will have a proper pupillary distance.
The spring will get slack, and if the springs are on the nose pads it will be un-comfortable and pinch y, as their name..
No warranty will work against the worst frames ever made, and that can not be properly adjusted and is of the most un-comfortable kind that ever sat on a human nose.
Who cares about optics when you can look so cool and sophisticated!
I bet that would fly on Shark Tank!
The Pince Nez was primarily used back in the day before cylindrical lenses came into use. Most of the corrective lenses in those days were plus sphere lenses - it you were a myope, tough tuba.
I dont see any great problems fitting one of these Pince Nez to a moderate single vision Rx, say less than a couple of diopters sphere and a diopter or so of cylinder. No freeform or progressives though.
He's gonna be on an upcoming episode of Sharktank. Even if they don't buy in the exposures will be incredible.
Who cares about optics ..........................
It seems that you forget about the profession of being a good optician, whose job description is to help the world population to see better, and not Who cares about optics when you can look so cool and sophisticated!
Sarcasm is very hard to receive while reading forum posts...
I did it! http://www.daniellivingston.com/2013...-antiques.html
Great fun too. Simple Comfort poly progressives, and they totally worked. Granted the customer used them primarily for fashion and costuming, not daily wear, and at his next visit opted to stick with the full metal wire antiques for better stability. But those were totally sweet.
These are just readers, no cyl to worry about, unless your goofy enough to mount an rx into a very cheap frame I suppose.
Nice work DanLiv! Those look great!
I currently have 2 patients wearing antique Pince Nez. One brought one in he got at an antique store and had me put his distance rx into it. When I told him I had a collection of antique eyewear at home with several Pince Nez he sent a friend who purchased one from me and had me make them for his reading glasses. What was once old is new again, right?
