How About Matching Shades This Summer?

Choosing the right sun glasses would really put anyone into trouble especially when there's so many things out there to choose from. The harsh elements, UV Rays, the glare seem to be a non ending cycle and we've all got to solve that in some way. Is it complicated? Very. Although there are places where you can get the needed help without breaking the bank. You would want something that would be worth it, something that can get you the needed protection and of course still look good on you. Have you visited Ideal Vision Center lately?

Wearing glasses can actually help in protecting your eyes and make you less susceptible to eye strain.  IVC has got these new collection of matching shades from brands like Diesel, Police, designers like Chopard, Givenchy, Furla that doesn't just give you the defense you need, but the world class styling in every piece.

I can't wait to get my hands on a pair from them. It's also the opportune time since I'm always out on the beach or in the sun these days. Perhaps they also have contact lenses, I'd like to change my old ones and become not just a regular looking guy. I'll have to get my eyes checked with their computerized equipment also, as they probably have that inside the store. I'll visit Ideal Vision Center soon, how about you?!

Allison Harvard and Phil Younghusband for Sprinto

Guess who just opened their first kiosk/shop over at The Block at SM North Edsa? Yes, you heard that right, it's Sprinto. They didn't just opened shop, but they also had a couple of surprises in store for those who love their eye wear. They were already letting us have a preview of their current models plus a mere countdown to summer via their Color Clash campaign set here and other cities like Dubai, Hong Kong and Singapore. 

We gasped at the sight of those sunnies. From classic shades, to shaped ones, aviators and durable sports grade eye wear, Sprinto has got it all. They don't compromise one thing though... and that's quality.

I thought I've seen her before. Oh yes, she's one of the finalists in My Foreignay if I'm not mistaken. She's wearing Sprinto eye wear! Cool!

She even brought her model friends with her. See? It's the perfect thing to wear this summer!

Whether you're out on the beach or just posing away at the mall, Sprinto eye wear would just be the perfect thing to complement your outfit. These ladies looked HOT!

Then, Sprinto's first ever endorsers in the Philippines arrived!

Now you can't say that's only local endorsements if you have Allison Harvard of America's Next Top Model, nor would you discount Phil Younghusband, a famed International Football player adored by fans of the Azkals!

Isn't she pretty? I love her! Isn't Phil Younghusband good looking? :)

There's a drawback having eyes like Allison's because she can't really stay outside and frolic in the sun like the rest of us. She needs better protection for her eyes, so this really is a good endorsement for her. It's meant to be! Still, don't we just love her blue eyes?! :)

Phil on the other hand stays out in the sun for hours because of the games he play. If he can, he really makes it a point to wear Sprinto eye wear when that happens. It's his first line of protection when there's harmful UV rays.

Fashion wise, Allison says she stays with Sprinto because it doesn't just look good on her but the quality is something that she'd be proud of when endorsing this brand. She is simple, but when she goes for those andorgenous looks she's well known for, Sprinto can still be wearable. Perfect for models like her!

Amazing Eyeglasses!

I know we all strive to look good and I haven't seen any of my friends throwing in the towel to severe ugliness or staying plain Jane. I get to see everyone make an effort each day to look the absolute perfect just to say I'm better than other people. It is something innate that make this phenomenon work. We also never get tired of it and to tell you the truth; I'm not surprised! I think it is man's urge for self improvement and the way we do it externally tells how we are with other people. I often purchase signature clothes, shoes and accessories but these days it is pretty hard on the budget. I know how hard it is to keep thrifty if you want quality and a polished look at the same time. The world market says so and it looks the same on any part of it too. Mom and I dropped by the local optometrist a few days ago to get some eyeglasses. Mom needed a new pair so badly because her old one fell off when she tripped in the church sidewalk that weekend.

Upon getting checked, she needed different grades for each eye. The optometrist/ophthalmologist suggested bifocals for her. She got up and searched the store; we found this red frame perfect for her however it was going to cost her 5,000 pesos. Its way off my expected price but she needed one badly.

There are on line stores selling these for 8 dollars and they were selling it for way more than that. I could have waited a few days for the eyeglasses and saved a lot in the process. Locals don't know it but we who frequently get on line do! I'm sure if they read the great words a guy said here for the eyeglasses they would change their mind and probably get their supplies there too. Imagine I can get the same quality for a tenth of the price. This is just amazing ZENNI!

An Eye Check Up?!

It is November and people in the office are in a stir because it is our annual physical examination. No it is not the paper and pen that you need on this one but the doctors and medical staff that would test if you are going to be fit for work. I was lucky enough to have passed all the previous years I was here but I think I'm going to complain about something today. I think I have eye problems now.

I have not been to an ophthalmologist or optometrist yet to have corrective procedures done but I'm sure this is going to be pretty simple. I think I am kind of tired too and I need a lot of rest since I have been going out quite a lot under the sun these past few weeks. Things may have damaged my eyes but I am not sure. I do not want to make things worse so I need corrective action. Is it time for me to wear glasses? Do you think I lost that 20/20 vision I had because of looking too much at computers? Oh I wonder!

The next thing in my mind though is that eyeglasses cost a lot in this side of the world. Even those commercial ones in the metro that promise to get you bifocals in an hour charge thousands of pesos just for a single frame. I could not spend money for that anymore; it just would not stand in line of the utility bills I have to pay. In the quest to find affordable ones, I remember one brand who made huge news in CNN before. It was ZENNI Optical. Yes ladies and gentlemen, it is the same on line store that had those $8 Prescription Zenni Glasses. I talked about them too a couple of months back.

They also have new Holiday Fun Eyeglasses on their store that seems perfect for the season. I may have to choose the one above though since it is simple enough for my needs. New Arrivals would probably come out next month and I will surely check them out too. I would not want to look old in the frames obviously. I will have to decide soon and I hope my eyes are not that badly damaged. I know everything would be alright.

Affordable and Stylish Eyeglasses

It is back to school season again and most folks would probably be preparing their kids for the busy first day. We on the other hand are getting a lot of people delegated so we would not cram for anything that would come this fiscal quarter at work. Not only do I have ordinary people in my team, they are parents too.

We have been following their day to day battle with expenses as education does not come cheap in the Philippines. The things they can save on are so important nowadays. The extra money they can keep will go into other more important things like allowances for food and school supplies. Prescription glasses are so expensive and usually go for hundreds of dollars. There is a new alternative to these expensive ones because I saw Zenni Optical on TV!!! This surely is a big break for parents since they need to keep money in these hard times. Imagine the huge breathing room on our budget as they offer complete Single Vision $ 8 Rx eyeglasses. That is just an awesome offer for people around the world. I have got nothing but high praises for a company that knows and cares for ordinary consumers. High Five to Zenni Optical as they take us to new offers this year! I am going to get this one in the picture which is so light and modernly designed. This is just awesome!

Bargain Basement Priced Spectacles

The one and only ZENNI Optical just made the headlines again and this time it’s not just an ordinary newspaper or spread sheet. Who among you have seen Zenni Optical in the New York Times?! If you missed that opportunity I’ll tell you again why I’ve been rooting for people to get this product. This is the one that can tear down the competition on the designer prescription eyeglasses. Imagine the difference of 100-300 US dollar spectacles that other optical shops offer and the $8 eyeglasses you get from their store! What a big difference right? No you are not blind because it’s really good Prescription eyeglasses for only $8!

They even have one of the largest collections of frames to choose from. The article in the New York Times has compared the prices and this was premiered as the sole bargain priced shop as compared to other ones that would like you to spend a fortune just for the same quality. Don’t be fooled, you know you can outsmart these overpriced shops so get the best thing that your money could buy. That’s what you call Seeing Straight Without Breaking Bank. Aren’t you glad you read about it here? So check them out now!

Seeing is Believing

I've been fortunate enough to be given clear 20/20 vision. I've seen a lot of people in the Philippines suffer from not seeing things because its either they refuse to get help, or could not afford to do so. Prices of eyeglasses have skyrocketed in the last few years, no thanks to a lousy financial reform system and a volatile dollar exchange rate.

In this day and age, saving money would spell how you would be able to know what's reasonable or not. I would not want to spend a fortune on my own set of spectacles if I needed it. I would not want to wake up one day and take the norm of getting eyeglasses $300 - $400 from my doctor if I could have had it far less than that. I found a website that would be able to do just that, this is http://www.optical4less.com.

I'm sure to recommend this to my friends since they'll take advantage of the anti-reflective coating that they will throw in for free on the prescription eyeglasses, get discounts and protect my eyes from UV rays with tinted sunglasses, have versatile bifocal reading glasses, progressive reading eyeglasses and photo chromic eyeglasses, the options are just endless. You can save up to 90% rate on rate of costs that eye doctors and optometrists usually charge. The website even brags about the virtual try-on system that you can use in choosing the right one for you so it's really hassle free. Panache glasses you order on the site can arrive on your doorstep within a week free of charge if you plan to purchase more than one. Don't take my word for it, see testimonials here: (http://www.optical4less.com/testimonial.htm) it's the biggest deal since sliced bread!
