Tom Davies / Kawasaki Trunk Show June 20th

On Saturday, June 20th, we will be hosting a trunk show from 11am-5pm for the entire Tom Davies and Kawasaki frame collections. Sales representatives for both collections will be in the store to assist in frame selection and answer any questions.

We are proud to offer Tom Davies' custom tailored "bespoke" eyewear. During the tailored consultation you have a sophisicated series of measurements taken, select from our portfolio of materials and colors, and we input your choices into Tom Davies' online Supertool.
Each frame is hand-made for you using a combination of traditional techniques and modern machinery. You will then have your unique new glasses with your name discretely engraved inside the right arm within three weeks.
In addition to eyeglasses, Tom Davies also has a range of sunglass styles to choose from in a wide array of colors and sizes.

Kazuo Kawasaki, an award winning industrial designer, has approached his signature collection with an artist's mind for creative design and a mathmatician's mind for precision. Using simple, yet effective technology, Kazuo Kawasaki's screwless, three-point tension mounted frames offer distinctive designs for any occasion.
Kazuo Kawasaki frames are constructed of the leading material in modern frame design, beta-titanium. Durable yet lightweight, beta-titanium is the ideal counterpart to the sophisticated design philosophy of Kazuo Kawasaki.

The Tom Davies and Kawasaki trunk show is on June 20th from 11am-5pm. We hope to see you there!

UV Rays and Blue Light Sensitivity

Healthy retinas contain a large arrangement of chemical defenses to protect from UV-blue light damage. They carry the names xanthophyll, glutathione peroxidase, melanin, and include the more well known agents lutein, vitamin C, vitamin E, and zeaxanthin. However, these protectors can become weaker with disease, injury, neglect, and age.
Another built-in defense is that our natural lenses take on a yellowish tint as we age, which helps to filter blue light. Unfortunately, after cataract surgery, patients lose that benefit. Recently doctors have recommended a replacement for the damaged lens with an intraocular lens (IOL) that is tinted to block blue light. The patient should be made aware, however, that this procedure will diminish scotopic (night) vision.
Blue light is important in "natural" lighting, and it may also contribute to our psychological health. Research, however, shows that high illumination levels of blue light can be toxic to cellular structures, test animals, and human fetal retinas. The industry has established standards for protecting us from extremely bright light and from UV radiation; and research to understand and block harmful blue light as best as possible is underway.
