Warby Parker: Glasses With a Cause

05 Aug 2014 By: Diane Gottsman

Do you wear glasses? If so, you know how expensive they can be, especially when you like to own several different pairs. I’d like to introduce you to Warby Parker, a company that prides themselves on good quality, better looking prescription eyewear at a fraction of the price of other high-end competitors.

“We believe that buying glasses should be easy and fun. It should leave you happy and good-looking, with money in your pocket. We also believe that everyone has the right to see. Almost one billion people worldwide lack access to glasses, which means that 15% of the world’s population cannot effectively learn or work. To help address this problem, Warby Parker partners with non-profits like VisionSpring to ensure that for every pair of glasses sold, a pair is distributed to someone in need.” -Warby Parker

I personally appreciate their community outreach and I’m happy to share a couple of frames on my wish list from their newly launched Waterway Collection: For the office:

For fun and sun:

And best of all, when I hit “add to cart” on their website, someone in need gets a free pair. I call that a “win-win”!
