Anyone who knows me knows that I always wear a pair of specs that compliment my rather fashionably geeky lifestyle. I need spectacles that not only aid in my vision but also have a little something else to offer on the technology front. Unfortunately, the perfect pair of back-to-the-future smart specs are still a work in progress, so to quench my thirst for functional glasses, I currently turn to Felix Gray’s beautifully handcrafted eyewear.
The idea behind Felix Gray was born of a mission to do things better. Representing a new breed of eyewear focused on eye health in the digital age the Felix Gray brand is fighting against the rise of digital eye strain. According to Felix Gray, Digital Eye Strain (abbreviated to DES or CVS for Computer Vision Syndrome) are symptoms caused by staring at digital devices for too long. This could be a phone, a tablet, a laptop, or a computer monitor. There are a variety of symptoms that people can experience; some people report all of them, some report just one, and many report a mix.
The Felix Gray Experience
I have found my pair of Nash specs with Felix Gray’s signature keyhole bridge to be kind to my eyes, especially when I spend an extended amount of time staring at my screen. The Handmade Italian elegant square frames are steady, comfortable and are a firm favourite with tech-savvy creators, designers, analysts, and developers.
Designed with lenses that increase magnification, reduce glare, and filter out blue light, my Nash glasses were named after John Nash, a Nobel Prize-winning economist and mathematician. Offering me the highest quality eyewear and experience such as smudge and scratch resistant lenses, the glasses I fell for are priced $95.00 and are available now.
