Modern Icons by Persol

Persol presents its new campaign dedicated to the icons of the future. Persol’s culture, from the past to the present and from the present to the future, is presented this season in unique iconic designs. The inspiring new campaign, which captures the essence of what it means to be a true icon, was shot in the studio by Philip Gay. Expressing what is reflected with just a glance, different characters and styles, including the famous model Chiara Scelsi, are reduced to their purest form and brought to life in the form of iconic black and white portraits. The Tom model, a staple of celebrity style in the 80s, becomes the protagonist of the ad campaign in the new generation. The model will be the center of attention this season with its temples and extremely eye-catching pieces on the temples.  The tortoise pattern combined with distinctive metal parts and gradient polarized or monochrome Barberini® Premium lenses in Havana or black give the model a unique look. The metal bridge and sleek metal temples give Vico, the striking new panthos-shaped model, a modern attitude. Persol’s flexible hinges ensure that the Vico fits perfectly on the face. Available in classic Havana and gold or black and silver combinations, the iconic polarized brown or green Barberini® Premium lenses offer a superior viewing experience.

UV Control Coating Prevents Glare

Providing 100% UV protection, Hoya UV Control coating absorbs UV rays on the front surface and prevents the reflection of UV rays on the back surface. In addition to preventing reflection, Hoya UV Control coating stands out with its antistatic structure that is resistant to scratches, dirt and water. UV is part of daylight and our environment. Unlike normal daylight, UV is invisible, no one knows it exists and the danger is hidden. UVA light (315-400nm) accounts for ninety-five percent of total exposure and penetrates the tissues – the deepest. UVB light (280-315nm) is partially absorbed by the cornea, with a small percentage reaching the lens of the eye. UVC light (200 -280nm) and UV Vacuum (<200nm) are absorbed by the ozone layer and do not reach the earth’s surface. There are natural UV sources from the sun as well as artificial sources in everyday life. UV rays, which trigger many acute or chronic diseases such as photokeratitis, retinopathy, cataracts and corneal diseases with prolonged exposure, are taken under control with Hoya’s premium anti-reflective coating UV Control coating.

Miu Miu’s New Styles Stand Out

Miu Miu’s new season collection reflects the brand’s identity by juxtaposing starkly contrasting elements. Feminine playful shapes illuminate the daring style of volumes. The eyewear showcased at the brand’s Spring/Summer 2023 runway reflects the Miu Miu woman’s eccentricity, with perfectly fit shapes contrasting with lightweight structures and a distinctive vertical Miu Miu logo adorning the lenses. The SMU54Y sunglasses from the collection are inspired by the 1990s.  The modern design of the front of the model features frameless and face-framing lenses personalized with the eye-catching Miu Miu logo. The Miu Miu Glimpse frames feature new acetate models, in which the thick profiles give way to larger shapes and the vertical Miu Miu logo is reduced in size, staying true to its iconic feature. The sun model SMU09Y from the Miu Miu Glimpse collection softens the thick profiles while the oval front evokes a sophisticated cat’s eye shape. The vertical Miu Miu logo, which integrates with the hinge of the temple, has been scaled down in keeping with the sophisticated style of the entire collection. The oversized SMU10Y sun model stands out with its oversized square shape. The model’s slightly beveled edges reflect modern femininity.

Vision Comfort with Hoya Polarized Lenses

Hoya Polarized lenses effectively block reflections and eliminate uncomfortable glare from the sun while enhancing contrast and providing better viewing comfort outdoors. Light travels in many directions, but when it reflects off shiny surfaces such as wet roads, cars, windows, snow or water, polarization occurs. This causes unpleasant glare and reduces vision. To avoid such situations, polarized lenses are the right solution for sunlight anytime and anywhere. Polarized lenses are perfect for users who want to avoid discomfort caused by glare. Especially those who drive, engage in outdoor sports or just like to spend time outdoors will enjoy the advantages of Hoya Polarized lenses. We recommend Hoya Polarized lenses for travelers, drivers, people who enjoy water and winter sports, people with light-sensitive eyes, people who are sensitive to glare and people who put fashion at the center of their lives.

Seiko Stands Out with Unique Colors

Seiko, which develops lenses for different needs and lifestyles and acts with great sensitivity and care at every stage of production, now sets out to differentiate your glasses with its unique color scale lenses. Optical lenses, which can also reflect the individual style of the wearer, are personalized with the tinting process and have a say in the fashion world. Especially with the arrival of the summer season, the warm weather and the sun showing its face, you can tint your eyeglass lenses with a wide range of colors supported by the quality of Seiko technology. With higher contrast and deeper colors, Seiko tint lenses offer advanced functionality as well as an individually crafted stylish look. With a wide range of colors in both progressive and single vision lenses, Seiko provides tinting at the desired color, shade and intensity level.
