Patients want protection—and good looks. “That’s making coming up with creative and fun [Rx sun] lenses a bit more interesting and allows us to flex our optician muscles while creating a stylish look,” says Teddy Hamilton, optician at Gogosha Optique in Los Angeles. Here, three top-notch ECPs divulge their best-selling Rx sun lenses right now.
“Mirror finishes on lenses are super hot right now. Blue mirror, silver mirror, and gold mirrors are just huge.”
